I've doubly doubly doubly checked, but can people please confirm I've done the timing right.....
92 Mk1 GTI Cabriolet, previously converted to KR16v on motorbike carbs. ran fine but engine was well worn when I bought it so bought replacement.
Now Timing how I have it is -
Bottom crank pulley, marks lined up at top TDC
Cam pulley lined up at top TDC
Piston one is at TDC
Flywheel is on TDC (not the 6 BTDC)
The distributer hasn't got a notch, but where all above is at TDC the rotor arm should point to lead no. 1... Yes???
Rotor arm turns forwards (anticlockwise when looking from distributer side)
Lead 1 where rotor is at TDC, then lead 3, 4 and 2
Please please confirm I have all this correct as it just won't fire on no. 3 and 4..!
Thanks
Wilson
