Have you tried connecting the light to number 1 plug, starting it. Then you can undo the supporting bolt that holds the dizzy and then slowly turn it until the lower pulley mark lines up with the timing pointer. This was the issue I had and now is much better for me. Unless the process is different on your engine to the the 1.3/1.4 8v
