I have been using 2 distributors.

If I use the the rotor cap on lead 1's contact point I will still get the drill mark line up.

Though I have been testing a tooth rotation either way and it will only start on the correct line up. Though it runs as if timing is incorrect.

I'm confident the motor is in good order though I'm really lost on what is happening here. As I have only got it started on the correct sectings & if i'm a tooth either way it won't start.
