The Distributor Rotor Assembly |
|
Lets take a look at the Distributor Rotor Assembly. When purchasing replacement parts it may be a good idea to replace known faulty parts first, therefore you could return the parts that were not necessary to get the care engine running. If the car engine has not had a tune up and you know that the old parts are due for replacement then it would be advisable to do so as soon as you are able which will prevent any unexpected breakdowns and inconveniences. |
SPECIAL CAR REPAIR TOOLS
Keep in mind that some auto parts stores will have rental or loaner tools available for you to use, and may only require a deposit and maybe a small fee to use the tool. Maybe if you are purchasing your parts there they will allow you to use these tools for free - it may pay to just ask and be friendly!

Removing a Stuck Distributor Rotor BaseNOTE: This is actually a pipe flaring tool, however a small gear puller locks pretty much the same except the two arms are not solid but adjustable so that they will swing in and latch behind the stuck rotor base so the puller can do it's job of sliding forward. |
