Hi Paul,
I can probably help you figure this out. If you are installing for the first
time, you may have installed the drive coupling (on the lower end of the dizzy
shaft) 180 degrees out. Or the drive gear may be a tooth or 2 off. If you
think this might be the case, I can email you instructions for the easiest
method for getting the drive gear orientation correct. Can you see where the
timing marks are located with the timing light?

Hi, Roadsterites!
I'm having an odd problem with a dizzy on a '66 1600. Can anyone out
there get me in touch with Gary Boone, or whoever is handling these
babies?
Basically, I cannot get this thing to time. The timing marks on the
crankshaft pulley are no where near the indicator. I've checked this:
1. The distributor drive gear is not reversed, it is correct.
2. The engine does run; badly but it runs.
Thanks!
Paul
