1.
Lubricate and test operation of governor weights. Inspect weight springs for distortion and bearing surfaces and pins for damage.
2.
Lubricate upper thrust washer and install onto shaft. Install shaft into housing.
3.
On 6 cylinder units, install lower thrust washer and distributor gear and roll pin. If a replacement distributor gear is to be installed, proceed as
follows:
a. Install thrust washer and replacement gear on rotor shaft. Position pin hole in replacement gear approximately 90° from hole in distributor
shaft, with scribed line made during disassembly between gear teeth, Fig. 15. On replacement distributor gears, the roll pin hole is located
higher than the original gear roll pin hole, so that distributor shaft will not be weakened when the shaft is rotated 90° and drilled to
accommodate the replacement gear.
b. Before drilling through shaft and gear, place a .007 in. feeler gauge between gear and thrust washer and observe that center line between two
gear teeth is in line with centerline of rotor electrode, Fig. 16. Drill a .124 to .129 in. hole and install roll pin. Support gear hub when
installing roll pin so gear teeth will not be damaged.

On all units, install lower plate, upper plate and pickup coil assembly, Figs. 12 thru 13.
