Alright here is the deal, ever since i converted to carbs i have had my spark plug wires set up like this ( picture ) but it runs crappy and I set the timing but still runs like crap. Now my question is after I was browsing pictures on here I see that it looks like my plug wires are set up wrong. But when i switch them to like this ( 2nd picture ) it just turns over and then ... pops like a timing issue. WTF!

I think we are being trolled. Anyone check the date of the original post?
I'm curious why starbear would resurrect a post that is over 10 years old. |

Yep - because it has really good info, like lots in these forums, that doesn't get stale. Couldn't find any other mentions of the issue with reversed distributor caps causing problem. Thanks for the concern, though! |
