sorry, I will start it again;
I only replace the block with one from a 90', everything else is from my engine. I have fuel at the rail, spark at the coil and at the 1 spark (I only check spark at the #1 spark cable). Yesterday I took out the ignition, take #1 piston to TDC and then installed the ignition so the rotor faced to the #1 ignition terminal. I try to start it but nothing only a bit of flame came out of the end of the exhaust manifold. Now it don't even crank and the starter do nothing, this thing is driving me crazy.
