Disconnect the negative cable at the battery and place it out of the way. Unplug the distributor pickup coil lead wire at the harness connector. Remove the pick-up lead connector from the retainer on 1984 and 1985 models. Remove the distributor splash shield and loosen the screws to lift off the distributor cap. Rotate the engine with a wrench until the distributor rotor is pointed at the engine block and mark the relationship of the rotor to the distributor body and the distributor to the engine block. Remove the hold-down screw or bolt and carefully lift the distributor out of the engine. Lower the distributor into position, ensuring the gasket or O-ring is seated properly and align the rotor with the mark on the engine block. If necessary, establish the proper relationship between the rotor and the number one piston position by rotating the crankshaft until the piston is at top dead center on the compression stroke. Install the distributor with the rotor pointing at the reference mark and align the distributor body and engine block marks. Install the distributor cap, hold-down bolt, and splash shield. Plug in the pickup coil lead and reconnect the negative battery cable. Check the timing and tighten the distributor hold-down bolt securely.

Start by disconnecting the cable from the negative terminal of the battery, then detach the primary lead from the coil and unplug the electrical connector for the Hall Effect pick-up. If the distributor has a splash shield, remove it.
