where is the timing mark?!

[Evangelos Makris <xirias@hol.gr>]

I was trying to check the timing on the BGT tonight and after marking it
with blanco (white correction fluid) I noticed that at 1,000 rpm it was
nowhere in sight when the strobe pin was on cylinder #1. However it
appeared at +10 degrees when I put the strobe pin on cylinder #3. What's
wrong here?

The engine works nice and smooth, pulls great, gives excellent CO and HC
readings (about halfway to the maximum allowed) but it overruns big time
when I turn it off.

Any ideas?
