Re: [T3] Distributor removal and install


<x-charset iso-8859-1>Jason: You don't have to worry about lining anything up. Just remove the cap
(leave the wires attached), pull the condenser wire off the coil, remove the
nut that holds the clamp to the case, and pull the distributor out. Do not
remove the clamp.

When you reinstall, first look down into the hole and note the position of
the drive gear. Look at the lugs on the bottom of the distributor and line
up the rotor in the same way, relative to the clamp. Push the distributor
back in its hole, line up the clamp where it was before, and as you push it
home, turn the rotor a bit to feel for the drive gear. It can only go in one
way correctly. It's easy.
