First problem is that if you are using the number 1 plug you will pick =
up the magnetic field from the ignition coil. Then you also need to get =
rid of the Steel core plug wires. For two reasons first they will cause =
problems with the timing light also they will also cause problems with =
the electronic ignition and will cause pre mature failure.=20
Try putting the pick up on the #6 plug wire.

Start the engine and let it idle until warm or drive a few miles to that =
purpose.
Set the idling speed at around 800-900rpm.
Set the dial to the required advance at idling with the vacuum line =
attached (see your workshop manual). Connect up to the battery and =
position the clamp on Nr.1 plug lead.
Loosen the distributor clamp.
Set the distributor to TDC on the marks.
Tighten the clamp, not to tight.
Recheck.
It is that simple.
WATCH OUT though for moving parts like the fan and water pump/dynamo =
pulleys/belts.
