In preparation for doing a valve adjustment on my 73 1.7 (1.9 big bore) I put the engine in TDC for cylynder one by locating the groove on the upper most part of the flywheel. There also was some sort of mark appearing in the V at the fan housing. When I went to do the adjustment on the number 1 cylynder I was unable to get the feeler gauge under adjusting screw of the intake valve. It appears to be in the open position. Upon examination I noticed that the destributor rotor is pointing to the number 3 cylinder wire location? I just got the car recently and it was running fine except for some backfiring upon deceleration. Any ideas what is going on here?
