my guess, dizzy pulled or wires removed, all at once?
1,3,4,2 (crank motor , look to see direction, many books show it wrong, so you look)
the rotor left the factor 1 way, after 20 year's 20 mechanics set it
their way. 1of 4 ways. all 4 work, on some the vac, can hits things. so...
Find TDC #1 firing, (lash loose at #1 , #1 is FRONT) then look at rotor.
bingo #1 is THERE.
first g o o g le hit

most pages skip this first check. even autozoned does. that.
out of factory #1 was at the clamp bolt, id not assume that.
in fact i never do, on any dizzy car made. (cept, slotted dizzy drives)
this car is gear drive and can be time wrong.
here , this post gets it right, cept the Haynes, is a bad book. IMO

one way to find TDC #1 front firing, is the wad of paper trick
1; SPARK PLUG 1 OUT. KEYS, IN POCKET !
stuff small wad of paper or a cotton ball (wife) in to spark hole 1.
key off , turn crank by hand CW (clock wise) see wad blow out.
this is the Compression stroke. keep turning crank cw until the Crank
TDC mark hits 0 (firing)
the rotor brass tip , now points to #1 REAL.
if valve cover off, you do same until both valve #1 are loose, lash.
if lash is sat wrong, you burn the valves up so no excuse for
#1 valves never loose. (hint , fix that first. do the 60,000 service now)
