Yes, the orientation of the rotor is as the picture.

Thanks for all your suggestions so far guys. I'll give it another look this evening.

OK, found some instructions for installation on t-web :)
Undo the centre small nut, take off the big nut on end of crank ..... now where is the red spot located on the aluminium pulse trigger wheel ?
That spot should be aligned with the "1 & 4" marks of the Honda advance and retard mech. If that's opposite (next to 1&2) then it'll do what it's doing now, that's firing the setup at 180 degree away from intended operation.
I was viewing the manual/instructions for install on the SOHC USA site for reference.

Yes the red spot is correctly aligned. I've gone through the installation again today and think I've cracked it through some very careful movement of the electronic board and a combination of completing a full cycle once the LED is lit and positioning with the power off. But it now lights in line with the F1,4 mark and extinguishes after the F 2,3 mark which should be correct. However, in this position there is almost no adjustment left in the bottom right slot on the PCB.
Unfortunately, I can't try a start as I've taken the carbs off to sort a leaky float valve.
Thanks again for all your help and suggestions.
