So now understand what went wrong when I worked on the distributor, and how to do it the right way, but I still can't fix it. I turned the timing mark to zero, then turned the distributor rotor to spark cyl. 1 (that is I turned the rotor until it was right over the #1 cable connection, and yes this was including that it turns when you re-mesh the gears), for what it's worth, the wires are and were in factory position. This didn't start the engine, so I did the same thing, but set it to 4 (I didn't notice the blowing into the spark plug hole trick the first few times I read the procedure, this obviously would have saved a lot of time), but it still didn't start. I really don't know what the problem could be, it worked before.
