Sounds like you are one tooth off with the distributor. The oil pump drive shaft is likely hanging you up because it is not in the proper position. It is going to be fun...

Get a mirror and a long, slender screw driver. You need good lighting as well.

Default RE: rotor

If you were just changing the rotor, this would not happen. But I believe the OP stated rotor when actually speaking of the distributor.
