The motors(440) been together for four yrs. now .i started it up and went for a ride when i got home i shut it down and when i re-started it ,it started and stalled . to make a short story endless i ended up moving the dist. about 90* to get it to start back up,it ran like *#%# . I checked TDC with the piston and balancer it looked good .also checked the dist. drive gear the keyway looked good so did the angle of the slot . any thoughts would be appriciated .
It could have but you checked TDC and the dist was in the right spot(before you moved it)... I did have a old engine in my truck jump time and it ended up right back to where it should be(weird) but every valve was bent... I checked the compression and it was like 40psi.... do a compression check

you know what the rotor was about one terminal off
In that case you most likely jumped... turn the crank back and forth and see when the rotor starts to turn

My 440 did something similar.It was new and running fine.went to start it a day later.Popping and wouldnt run.Pulled the cap and dist rotor was off.I said some nice words thinking I would be tearing apart a new engine.Pulled the dist and it had come apart inside.That was a Mallory unit.Installed a new MSD full setup and never looked back.Rocky
