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

i unwittingly did this recently. i didn't put the distributor back into the engine deep enough (not usually a problem for me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool_shades.gif) ), so it never 'caught' the distributor driveshaft. then, i turned the engine, expecting it to start! figuring out what i did wrong was a long --though ultimately relatively simple -- process of re-aligning everything back to normal from TDC (which, exacerbatingly, wasn't marked on my fan).
all of which is to say, don't do this! it mildy sucks... (of course, now i can R&R a distributor and re-time the engine in a matter of minutes....) |
