I put the distributer on and it fit perfectly. But I still get a misfire. Is there a certain position to put this on that I may have overlooked?

After putting on the distributor did you check the ignition timing?


Misfires can be caused by worn or fouled spark plugs, a weak spark (weak coil, bad spark plug wire), loss of compression, vacuum leaks, anything that causes an unusually lean fuel mixture (lean misfire), an EGR valve that is stuck open, dirty fuel injectors, low fuel pressure, or even bad fuel
