Hello and firstly a happy new year to everyone Secondly I'm hoping you guys can give me some advice regarding the fitting of my new Bestek dizzy, coil and amp. I removed the old distributor and carefully marked the position so the new bestek one could be fitted in exactly the same position, which I did. Now here's where I think I have committed a school boy error, should I have turned the crank so that piston number 1 is at top dead centre indicated by a mark inside the dizzy and the rotor arm (hope that makes sense), and if so why would this matter on the old dizzy when I'm fitting a new modified one. I have checked that all the other wiring is correct (i.e. coil to bestek amplifier, amplifier to dizzy) and that the earth is good. I even took the opportunity to fit new HT leads at the same time. Talking about HT leads although I'm certain these are the same as when they came off the old dizzy, does any one know how I can check this? I thought these Bestek systems were plug and play because they are simply a higher powered replacement for my standard electronic set up, so I have obviously committed some school boy error somewhere. When I crank it over the engine doesn't even attempt to fire All suggestions are very welcome as I plan to sort this tomorrow. Best regards, Jason
