I've spent a lot of time checking rechecking again and again that it was 1.2 mm BTDC. This is the digital unit.PVL instructs to set the timing 1-1.1.2mm BTDC.
I was going crazy because I didn't see the other mark on the rotar at first and was setting the timing 180 degrees out. I felt so stupid when I realized my mistake. I thought for sure once I found my error that things were going to go smooth from there.
There isn't anything hard about itI and I'm still missing something
