I am switching the Mag on my 27 Regular to a known good one ( I hope ) to see if my hard crank starting will get
better. So I have the book handy, I put the engine on TDC compression, and it says to rotate the coupling til the
distributor disc is pointing near #1 plug wire terminal and the points are just opening. Ok , all well and good, except
there isn't a position where the disc is near #1 AND the points are just starting to open. So whats wrong ? This is
with full retard and impulse coupler off as per the book.It is an E4A with manual impulse. Or is there a different way
?
