Where to set distributor
#11
If you have the EDI distributor setup (horizontal wire terminals), then I believe so.

Ok, so I have spent every other weekend for the llast3 months pulling and halfway rebuilding my motor. It got a valve job, all new gaskets, timing chain, plugs, wires. Got it all put back together and it wont run right. It starts, and will stay running if I hold the pedal a tad, but when I release it dies. The motor sounds like its missing, but not a steady or constant miss like it would for a plug. I have checked vacuum lines as well as I could, is there anything else to check? Also, I know that I need a crank relearn performed from me moving the crank around, could that cause this? Im about to give up, and wont be back in town for a few weeks
Also, there is no SES light, gas is a few months old, etc, but I dont think that would do this
Also, not sure if a bad knock sensor would be able to do any of this, but I don't think the knock sensor is in the best shape

Paid $43 for a relearn procedure. No help at all. The local garage tech says he thinks I am out of time. I will recheck everything but I doubt it. In the attached timing instructions there is a footnote talking about the dimple, any ideal what they are calling a dimple?

Thats what I'm scared of. It ran a hundred times better before I took it apart with no compression on the cylinder 1 and a huge leak in the intake maifold gasket. To be honest, it seems like a vacuum leak somewhere, I just cant track it down. Does anyone know if I can scan for vacuum? I have a tuner that I use to change parameters in my car, and it will pull DTCs just fine in the blazer. So im assuming it will scan all available parameters for the blazer as well, I just didnt know if there was available vacuum information.

also, as far as the dimple goes, my distributor had a small dimple in the metal down at the bottom that I saw
