Hello all: I just installed a used distributor on my 74 2.0, when I removed the old one I turned the engine so the rotor pointed toward the # 1 spark plug/notch on the dizzy rim then removed it and installed the new/used dizzy. Here's what seems diff from the old to new dizzys. when timing with the strobe light I turned the dizzy farther counter clockwise than the older one. Now instead if the plug for the trigger points being dirctly behind the dizzy it faces about 10 oclock(towards the driver. Does that seem right? Also the timing mark from idle to 3500 rpm only moves a quater inch when i do the timing. Does that sound right? I think my old dizzy had more timing mark movement with the rpm changes. I backed the idle adjustment screw oll the way in to it's lowest point and the lowest i could get it to go was the 1100 rpm. Wondering why that is. I could get it lower before. Thank you everyone, Joe
