Just recently put new distributor in. found top dead center and alined the rotor with the cap. Now when I try to start the truck it pops through the carb or backfires through the exhaust. When it poped through the carb I moved the distributor a hair and it backfires through the exhaust? ANY IDEAS HELPFUL! I also adjusted the air/fuel mix screw.
 
Just a thought... the mark on the crank shaft pulley, was it the notch or the faint line about 45 degrees after the notch that you aligned as tdc. sometimes the faint line is covered by grease or dirt.
