As title, if any one knows please help. I have just changed the gasket had the head skimmed etc etc, put it all back together and its not running correctly. I dont think the leads are in the correct order, the leads and cap are marked but its not correct, the engine starts but is not runing properly.
Any one got any idea?

the firing order is 1-5-3-6-2-4 with cylinder 1 being at the radiator side of yer engine, so they should go from your distributor in that order and in the correct rotation i.e. the rotor should go from 1 to 5 to 3 etc etc.
on mine with the cap fitted the upper most spark lead is no 2 then clockwise to no 4 then no1 etc etc.
hope that helps!!!
