place engine at top dead centre. mark dizzy where no 1 cylinder will fire (approx). drop dizzy in. rotate to align the mark that you made.

this is a rough start. now if engine doesn't start and back fires through the carby/ intake manifold. the timing was out by 180 degrees.

if starts and no timong light available rotate by hand until engine sounds to running ok. go to far and engine will stall and or ping whilst driving under load. hope this helps
