Quick distributor/pickup coil question



Hi Rob,
You could certainly replace the pick-up coil with-out removing the
distributor but it would be alot easier with the distributor removed. The
pick-up coil is fastened to the plate on these and the vacuum advance has to
come off. You also have to remove the reluctor which would come off alot
simpler on the bench. These distributors will only go in two ways so if you
watch the direction the rotor is pointing and mark the housing, you wouldn't
even have to reset the timing, although I'd have it checked as soon as
possible after replacement.
