Dear Bill;
First you have to find TDC on #1 cylinder as the ball 'lines up' twice. So; remove #1 plug & rotate the engine with the starter until you feel pressure(with your finger) in the that cyl. & line it up then.
Next see if the distributer is in right. If not, remove it watching which way the rotor turns as you will need to know this when you re-install it(it will rotate the oposite way). Now rotate the rotor to the #1 position and install it. Make sure it goes all the way down, or the oil pump won't work.
Clear as mud; right???
Without turning the engine try it a few times until you get it right. You may have to move the oil pump drive slot with a screw driver to line it all up.
Good luck, John M.........
