Some problems, please help.

Hello,
I have a Fiat 124 spider 2000 injection from 1980 and I have some problems and doubts if they can help me thanks

The camshaft cams have their own position (Admission and escape?)


Wiring and rotor position correct?





what is your opinion?
Thank you

What is the issue?

The only obvious issue is that the coil lead to the distributor should have a boot like the spark plug leads.

[Nuno82]

The problem is that the car picks up, but practically does not accelerate and does some black smoke.
It implies that there is a lot of gas and little air.

Thanks

After fixing that lead wire, have the distributor timed to 10 Deg BTDC. See how it runs then.

[Nuno82]

Ok, I'll try it tomorrow.
Thank you so much for your time

There is strange discoloration on the Spark plug wires. I dont see anything else really. At TDC those holes should line up to mars on the cam boxes

[wetminkey]

Might be the angle of the pic, or I might be wrong,...what's the possibility that one of these cams is a tooth off,...? Timing holes appear slightly asymmetrical,...

I already solved the problem !!!
Tab of the fifth injector exchanged with that of the air controller of the admission.
Thank you so much guys for the help

Two big steps, You learned to post pictures and sort out the motor!

That distributor rotor is incorrect for the electronic distributor. That rotor does not contain a resistor between the carbon button and the tip like it should. That rotor is for the early block mounted distributor. IIRC there may also be an interference between the rotor and the centrifugal weights not allowing them to move and advance the timing when the RPM's increase.
