REMOVAL & INSTALLATION

Distributor Cap

1. As a precaution, label all of the spark plug wires with their perspective cylinder number.
2. Loosen the cap hold-down screws.

3. Remove the cap by lifting straight up to prevent damage to the rotor blade and spring.

   NOTE: If the plug wires do not have enough slack to allow cap removal, confirm that they are properly labeled and remove them from the cap.

4. Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure. Note the position of the square alignment locator, or keyway, and tighten the hold-down screws.

Distributor Rotor

1. Remove the distributor cap.
2. Pull straight up on the rotor to disengage it from the shaft and armature.
3. Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure. Align the locating boss on the rotor with the hole on the armature, or the flat on the shaft, then insure that it is fully seated on the shaft.
