If you're new to this discussion look at some of the other posts his month.
I THINK is SHOULD start, but it won't.
Have fuel
Have spark
I'm not taking the valve cover off again to check cam timing, bacause I'm sure its right.
for those of you with a 2.1 swap, where does your vac advance sit?
The plug wire for #2 seems just barely long enough.
Lets make sure I have the wires in the right place.
I'm pretty sure they are.
One new thing, I get a little pfft and blue smoke from the center of the dash when i crank it for the first time (sometimes). Scared the poo put of me the first time. I did change the interior fan recently.
I was working on another car to make the spg jealous, though it may start, but it didn't work. Figure I'd try.
Thanks for everyones help so far.
Carl
