Replacing the distributor?

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros. Com.

If the vehicle will not start, changes are either it is out of time or the distributor is not fully in place. Here are the directions which explain how it goes together as well as timing. The attached pictures correlate with these directions.

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Removal:

1. Disconnect the connector from the distributor.
2. Disconnect the ignition wires from the distributor ignition (DI) cap.
3. Remove the mounting bolts from the distributor, then remove the distributor from the cylinder head.

Installation:

NOTE: Before you install the distributor, bring the No.1 piston to compression stroke TDC.

1. Coat a new O-ring with engine oil, then install it.
2. Slip the distributor into position.

NOTE: The lug on the end of the distributor and its mating grooves in the camshaft end are both offset to eliminate the possibility of installing the distributor 180° out of time.

3. Install the mounting bolts, and tighten them lightly.
4. Connect the ignition wires to the distributor ignition (DI) cap as shown.
5. Connect the connector to the distributor.
6. Set the ignition timing.
7. After setting the ignition timing, tighten the mounting bolts.
