connector.
15. Using the supplied special tool and a 1/4" wrench, remove
the four screws that hold the distributor cap to the engine
and pull the cap off (Figure 1).
16. Remove the two rotor screws and pull the rotor off. At
this time, the isolator assembly will slide off the housing.
INSTALLATION
1. Locate and install the distributor-to-isolator seal then
position the isolator in place on the distributor (Figure 2).
2. Install the new rotor with the supplied hardware. The rotor
only installs one way. Make sure it sits squarely on the
shaft.
Note: It is recommended to use a threadlocker like Loctite
Blue on the two rotor screws.
3. Make sure that the Isolator-to-Cap seal is installed on the
isolator, then install the cap using the supplied Phillips
head screws (Figure 3).
4. Locate four metric Phillips screws that retain the cap
assembly. There is also a standard, slightly larger and
longer Phillips screw. This screw is used with the Clamp-
Block that goes in the cap tab located between the wiring
harness and the coil wire tower (Figure 4).
5. Note that the Clamp-Block has two different thicknesses
(Figure 5). Some distributor housings have a machined
surface while others are cast. Determine which side works
best in your application to secure the top mount of the
cap. Once the direction is achieved, slide the Clamp-Block
into position and screw the standard Phillips screw into
position (Figure 5).
6. Connect the distributor connector followed by the coil
wire and spark plug wires. Ensure that each wire is in the
correct location (Figure 6).
7. The distributor is assembled. Reinstall all of the
components in the reverse order. It is recommended to
follow along with your vehicle’s service manual.
