First double check that you have the plug wires on right. Then make a mark on the distributor body where the #1 post is. With the engine at TDC on #1, remove the dist cap. Turn the dist. so that the mark you made is dirrectly under the electrode on the rotor. Your timing should now be at "0". The engine should start.
