9.
Remove the shaft bearing tightening screws.
10.
Make a position identification mark on the distributor shaft (for the drive gear, to prevent 180° out of alignment, during reassembly).
11.
Place the drive gear on a soft base (wooden block) so that it will not be damaged.
12.
Drive out the spring pin by using a pin punch.
REASSEMBLY:
DISTRIBUTOR SHAFT:
After coating the shaft with a small amount of engine oil, insert the shaft into the distributor housing.
CAUTION: Do not use solvent or similar products.
DRIVE GEAR:
1.
Align the drive gear with the mark made at the time of disassembly, and install the gear to the distributor shaft.
2.
When aligning the drive gear's mating mark to the housing's mark, be sure that the notch "A" at the rotor end of the shaft is in the position shown
in the (Distributor assembly Marks) image. If no errors were made in either the marking or alignment procedures the pin holes should align
properly. Drive in a new spring pin, insuring that the slit in the pin is at a 90° to the distributor shaft.
