[Zmagnette] ignition problem

[jtdbrough2 at netzero.com]

Dennis,
 
Is the ignition timing set right?

The car was running, then quit, so I would say yes.
 
Are the plug wires going to the correct cylinders?

See above.
 
Weak spark on #4 cylinder only could a plug wire, a sparklpug, or a distributor cap.

will check that out.  I did see evidence of the rotor making physical contact with the contact in the cap.
 
Weak spark on 1 cylinder won't keep the engine from starting, mis set timing will.

will check timing again when I get is running.
