Distributor question

Do i have to set the motor to TDC first and then take off the dizzy? Or can I just mark the position of it and install it back ?

Re: Distributor question

as long as you don't plan on turning the engine over, just marking where it is should be just fine.

i generally roll it around to the #1 plug and then pull it.

Re: Distributor question

As long as you put it back how it was removed (and don't turn the motor over any) it will be fine.
