I know these are complicated problems, and there's a lot to provide a thorough explanation of the situation... but sometimes you guys make me feel like I should be taking pictures of the key that I'm using in the ignition, just to show you I do have some understanding of "what car is." I've done a lot better than just stuttering, "why moto no go vroom?"
If anyone has had similar symptoms, such as only starting when the distributor was on some weird timing, like 30' or 50' ATDC, I would love to hear your experience in solving that problem. I also realize most folks may not have noticed that a motor would start at that weird ass timing, but I did, and it's a valuable symptom to consider.
