Why can I only set ignition timing correctly if I set my cam gear and crank pulley like this?
I replaced the distributor on my Cvic VX (D15Z1), and when I went to adjust the ignition timing, I realized that I couldn't adjust enough to be within range. The TDC was too far behind the timing sight. So I figured my mechanical timing was off, even though the cam gear and the crank pulley seemed to be perfectly aligned, I could not set the ignition timing. So I tried rotating the cam gear a tooth counterclockwise. The lines do not match up, but now I'm within range for ignition timing, is this normal for this engine? I feel like there's less power than before. Any ideas?
