On my 72 2.0 My timing belt is on right I think " Compared it with my 73 - but my timing light shows it's off by like an inch on the 72, Car won't run if I put at 6 before TDC. Could the Distributor be why it's not lining up right with the light strobe. The 73 strobes the light spot on 6 before TDC
I just learned to understand the compression stroke with TDC after watching a few youtubes, I checked that, the #1 spark plug hole - blows as it's coming up on tpd, that's how it should be, right?? On my 2.0 `1972 Pinto, it only runs good if I'm at like 20 before TDC, should be 6 before TDC. I can't understand whats going on. all my timing marks line up.
