You can fake up the pin-release tool (I thought the Molex-specific one was round?) by grinding down your smallest screwdriver. Or just pick up another pin release tool at Rat Shack (Radio Shack) or nearest equivalent electronics store.
You disassemble the distributor from the top, at least at first. You pull all of the external parts off (e.g., cap/rotor/points/vacuum dashpot), then you start working inside the distributor. The points plate comes out with some magic, or by unscrewing the tab that holds the ball bearing I think. I believe you can get in to some of the guts of the dizzy from there. For the rest, you drive out the pin that holds the drive dog onto the bottom of the shaft. Make sure you get the orientation of the dog & shaft clear so you can reassemble it correctly... Then I think you can slide the shaft out of the distributor body. I don't think that odd-shaped hole in your photo will do anything for disassembling the distributor. --DD |
