If have been following or contributing to my crank no start issue on my 1987 924s I appreciate your feedback and patience.

This may be a stupid question or my problem may be extremely easy to fix(hoping for the latter) when i reinstalled my distributer rotor button approx 2-3 months ago. I lined up the set screw(Allen bolt) up with the hole in the crankshaft.

Stress was extremely high due to a nonstarting porsche.recent custody battle (victory!)and job stress so i was not thinking clearly.

I may have(hope i) aligned the set bolt on rotor where the hole in crankshaft is instead of (hopefully) the setbolt just gripping the shaft.

Is it possible my porsche is simply out if timing per rotor being misplaced on crank shaft causing crank no start? Or is the setbolt supposed to line up with hole in crankshaft?

In other words.is the set screw (Allen bolt)supposed to line up with the hole in crankshaft or is it simply supposed to grip the shaft elsewhere?

Rotors set screw goes into the hole on the camshaft sprocket extension.
Make sure you have a tach bounce when cranking.

have tach bounce.getting voltage to injectors.injectors brand new.just not getting pulses to the injectors.crank no start.

The #1 spark plug is the lower right side of the distributor when looking at it. If your engine is at TDC, the rotor should be pointing at that terminal.

you can verify that you actually have spark by pulling the coil to dist wire off and setting it about 1/4 inch from the block =- look for a nice hot spark when cranking.
