Dizzy wont go on straight

Has anyone ever had this problem? My dizzy lines up and goes in but when I go to tighten it up one side is always sideways. I dont want to force it to fit, so If you got any suggestions please feel free to info me. Thanx!

Turn the rotor 180 degrees and try again.

Yeah the dizzy is "keyed" so that you can't put it in wrong (or at least it won't go on right like you are saying), and simply rotating it around 180° should fix it...

Are you saying you have the distributor shaft lined up with the notch in the cam end and it still wont bolt up straight?
