I just put a tec distributor on a 98 honda civic ex 1.6L non v-tec engine. Either my coil or my ignition module in my last distributor was bad so I just bought a whole new distributor. Anyways, so I have the new distributor on and try to start the car and it sounds like it wants to crank over but it also sounds like it might be misfiring? Anyone help please?

 

you didn't force the distributor in right?...it should slide in like butter Also make sure your timing is set.

 

Yea it was easy to put the dizzy on and didnt have to force anything....but as far as setting the timing correct how would I go about that?
