Today I finally had a little free time to get it running and go for a drive. After installing the fuel pump and tank, it wouldn't start and the plugs were fowled with gas. I decided to move the ignition coil closer to the distributor, to make the trigger wires reach without a pigtail extension. I also removed the distributor cap and found some carbon dust covering the rotor. It seemed like I might have left the rotor a little too high on the shaft, but I'm not sure.

This blog documents my Volvo 1800E project car; It may be of little interest to others but serves as an electronic logbook. I will also use it to document our travels in this car.
