Had scavaged a dist to use on another car, not caring to mark it as was going to do a head gasket. car outside on a grassy hill and cannot be moved due to slickness. Tried to reinstall the unmarked dist and although having done this many times am not getting it done. Can find the marks on fly wheel and see #1 cyl is at TDC yet distributor will only fit in the slots if distributor finger is 180 out, . Is the problem the #1 cyl might be on the exhaust strok? Is that possible while seeing the timing numbers on the flywheel? If so then I can turn the engine until the flywheel numbers show again and find the cyl at TDC and the #1 cyl will be on the compression stroke? Is there an easy way to turn that fly wheel by hand so that it can be watched when moving it?
