Massey 135, 3cyl gas

The roll pin that holds the gear on at the bottom of the distributor rod sheared off. Of course I did not know that at the time and I continued to turn the motor over trying to troubleshoot the problem. This is when I realized the distributor rotor was not turning. So, I marked the distributor, pulled it out, and fixed the gear with a new roll pin. After reassembling the tractor still would not start... backfired a lot, but did not start. Little did I realize that the tractor is now out of time.

Are there timing marks? What steps should I take to try to get the motor at least started to where I can adjust the time?

I have not gotten a manual as of yet.. Maybe that should be my first step.

Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Dan

The distributor can easily be set back by pulling the distributor and replacing it with the tip of the rotor button pointing to the number one plug wire terminal inside the cap. Be SURE the #1 piston is at top dead center on the fireing stroke. The timing mark should be lined up at this point of top dead center.--- I think??-- there is a small plate on the bell housing that can be moved to see the timing mark? Hope this helps.
