Ok,

just to make sure I'm not nuts here..

With pulley showing at TDC   * AND * rocker arms at firewall both  
loose and ready for adjustment *  THEN  * rotor should be pointing at  
wire for the same cylinder right??

And the fact that there is fuel puddling in the pre-supercharger  
manifold would indicate:

	a leaking carb or

	blockage to cylinder head  or

	no suction.
