Leave the wires on the spark plugs.  Disconnect all of the wires from the distributor cap.  Reconnect the wires to the cap as shown in w3wilkes post #2.

Put the rotor back on and make sure it points to #1 when the ignition timing mark is between zero and 10 degrees.

there is NO mark on the cap... how do i find the first spot with a mark on the cap??

can  you not tell me by looking at the top of the cap??

The rotor goes here.  It presses on by hand.

Maybe someone put your motor in the car backwards it happens all the time… 😆
