Trying to check the timing and when I hooked up the timing light, the light would only come on when I hooked up the wire to the #2,5,6 plug wires. when I hooked to the 1,3 or 4 wires the light would not come on. Cap and rotor is in good condition, points and plug wires are new. Any suggestions? | | | | | Joined: Jun 2009 Posts: 2,201 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2009 Posts: 2,201 | let me guess you have a nice new set of yellow 7mm wires. Go to the parts store and get a set of OEM type wires. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 Riding in the Passing Lane | | Riding in the Passing Lane Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 | You can time it on #6 but that doesn't answer the question. Does it run OK? They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though.

And it seems to be running ok. I just wanted to check the timing because it seems to crank a little hard when warmed up. | | |
