I just rebuilt my 71 1600dp and installed it into my bus and it will not start. in checking when the rotor is at the #1 position the plug for #1 sparks, the piston is at TDC and the valve clearance is at specs. The firing order is correct. The thing will not even make a noise. It just turns over and over. nice and smooth but no fire. I did just for kicks twist the distributer half way around and got a puf of smoke. I installed the distributer gear correct with the # piston at TDC Sometimes I think no gas but the filter is full. I get no real smell of gas from the plug. should i throw sone gas directly down the carb or just all over the bus and burn it to the ground. PLEASE HELP I AM AT NEAR BREAKDOWN TIM 71' BUS
