Explain to me a little more or send me an article on this magic way of timing you speak of. No spark plugs, no running engine? Que?? You Said, if I remember right to pull the spark plugs but have them grounded and plugged into the sockets still. I'm picturing 8 spark plugs still attached to the distributor cap. How do you ground that, 8 different ground wires? I tried googling that and couldn't find anything like that. But I'm game to give it a shot. I just took everything back off,so I have what I think is top dead center, distributor locked down, cap on, no plugs or wires. So it would be the perfect time to do it. Thanks again
