Hello,
I just finished doing a motor swap on my 90 se maxima. The new engine is already mounted and ready to go. However, i'm not sure how to install the distributor. I tried starting the car once and the firing was off.
I'm not sure exactly where TCD is at. I put a screw driver on the first piston chamber but i'm not sure that this is the best way. I think it's the first mark on the cranksharft? not sure? Also, which way does the rotor need to face? is it towards the #1 spark plug wire on the disty or towards the actual # 1 piston it self? Need some help - my baby is ready go just need to get this out of the way.
tks

I'm sure by now you're without need for an answer, but it needs to point towards the #1 wire, and it might take a few tries back and fourth on the teeth but you'll get it.

Good luck.
