Hi John,
Your Rotor is way off in that photo compared to mine.
- See the photo of where the Rotor should be lined up on the side of the Distributor body.
- The Rotor should be pointing to the #1 Electrode in the Distributor Cap.
The instructions for "Timing the Distributor" should get the engine running for you.
I attached the "WIRES" photo so you can double check your set up.
