Well i've gone from "rar..rar..rar..rar.." to "rar..rar...rarrarrar...rar...rar...rarrarar"

I've got nice hot spark now on the points, and all plugs are nice and hot sparkin'.

The flywheel has a nice glaze of surface rust on it, so I can't make out any timing marks to line up with the little finger thing in the "window".

I'm going to try Hotrod Lincoln's method today.. i'm hoping it's just a matter of me not having the plug wires on right, because at present i'm not sure where the #1 spot is on the distrubuter.

an idea is only stupid if you think about it rationally.
