What's the best way of installing the trigger points for the injectors? Do I need to remove the distro?
Thanks, Eric |

QUOTE(Gint @ Feb 22 2004, 08:49 PM) Because the motor turns twice for every one revolution of the dizzy, it's quite possible to end up 180 degrees off. The secret is to align the rotor to the same place it was in when you pulled it, and to not allow the engine to move between the time the dizzy was removed and when it gets replaced. I forgot about that possibility. I've had it drilled into to me that you NEVER turn a Type IV engine with the distributor removed so it never entered into my mind that you would. Turning the engine with the dizzy out, but the shaft still in, can result in the distributor shaft no longer being correctly aligned at it's base with the gear on the crank. The result is a distributor that is really off the mark on timing. |
