    Firing while the intake is open (advanced) will cause backfiring throught he carb. Firing while the exhaust is open (retarded) will cause backfiring through the exhaust.

    Is there a timing mark on the balancer you can use for TDC? Just pull a plug and make sure you're building pressure as the mark starts to line up. Then line up the rotor so it is approaching the #1 wire on the cap.
