Sorry to hear of the fired unit. I have read the timing on the V-4 is tricky to get right. But if the engine fired right up after reinstalling your points the timing has to be close. Have you checked for any play (float) in the distributor shaft? How is everything else in the ignition system? Points not burned and set to correct gap? New capasitor cap and wires? Spark plugs and gap? Check your vacuum hoses. Is the advance working? Could it be a fuel problem choke setting or accelerator diaphram? Remove the engine cover to view the timing marks GOOD LUCK!
