How To Get To The Bottom Bolt On The Distributor?

[spoonfed]

Hi, i've done the sparkplugs and the wires already, but theres an cover that goes over the distrubutor cap that i can't seem to remove, i found 3 bolts on each of them but still can't get it off, is there a trick to this or am i missing an bolt? Thanks

bent the cover or remove the aux belt.

yeah u just need to have the right size wrench, and a good extension helps.

once it warms up i'm going to do a full tutorial on ignition replacement so we can have around here for reference. plugs, wires, dist cap rotor ect..........

its gonna be fun, can't wait

You just have to sort of "wiggle" it out...3 bolts should be all.

I just finished fighting that piece yesterday...if you're talking about the one on the right side, there's that wire that feeds through a rubber grommet that sits in a hole on that cover. You have to pull that grommet off the the cover. There's also a slit in the grommet so you can pull it off the wiring and feed the wire back through the cover to allow complete removal of the cover itself.

It also requires somewhat strong wiggling. But be sure to free that wire before forcing anything or you may do some electrical damage.
