The distributor in your vehicle is a relatively simple device created to control the ignition timing. It turns out the exact time at which the spark plug ignites the air/fuel mixture in your car’s engine is very important. Too early of a spark and the engine could sustain significant damage. Too late, and your engine could make little to no power. The distributor is a mechanical and electrical device that controls when the spark happens in each cylinder. You might be installing a new distributor because yours is broken, or because you want to upgrade to a more advanced or powerful unit.
Installing a new distributor can be done in a few simple steps:
Set the engine to top dead center (TDC)
Install the distributor
Set the base ignition timing
Tighten the distributor hold-down bolt
It’s important to set your engine to top dead center before you do anything to make sure you know where the distributor is in relation to the crankshaft and camshaft. The distributor in your car is driven either directly or by a gear from your camshaft. That means every time your camshaft spins one revolution, your distributor turns 360 degrees as well. When you install your new distributor you want it to be in the exact same orientation so it is in sync with the rest of the engine and is sending a spark to the right spark plug at the right time. Even being a few degrees off can cause your engine to backfire, knock or not run at all.
