Ok those who have helped so far with wiring pre start....the quest moves on........I would like help....................which direction would the rotor arm be facing to be in position no 1 (on cap) with number 1 piston tdc and mark on pulley 4 degrees . ....side entry cap and imagine looking down on the cap....therefore 12 oclock would be arm facing top and 6 oclock facing oil filter..sorry if its 6 year old speak............I did get a flame from the exhast earlier on and thought oooooooops that s not right...crossflow engine...

you need too find out what position your valves are at it may be firing on no.4 instead no.1 so 4 would be on compression and 1 would be on exhaust hence the flame from pipe, timing out 180 degrees maybe

Blimey long time since i worked on a crossflow if im wrong chaps just hola
Take off rocker cover, turn engine over till rockers on no 4 are rocking both rockers on no 1 should have a gap, engine firing on 1 fit dizzy, should be a notch on casing align rotor arm with that then do the leads to firing order
