distributor key could be facing the wrong way. It fits only one way.

it's faces only one way. if you flip the key (the part that goes into the engine, looks like the flat end of a screwdriver) 180 degrees it will not fit into the engine no matter how hard you try.

Del Sols came with another single cam other than the d16z6. It could be that the dizzy is off that motor.
