   • Kabloya pîlê neyînî qut bikin.
   • Mark the position of the rotor on the old distributor relative to the distributor body, and the position of the distributor body relative to the engine block. This will help with re-timing.
   • Label all spark plug wires before removal.
2. Old Distributor Removal:
   • Remove the distributor cap and spark plug wires.
   • Disconnect any electrical connections to the old distributor.
   • Loosen the distributor hold-down clamp and carefully lift the old distributor out of the engine block. Note the rotation of the rotor as it comes out.
3. New Distributor Installation:
   • Ensure the engine is at Top Dead Center (TDC) on the compression stroke for cylinder #1.
   • Align the new PerTronix distributor's gear with the camshaft gear. The rotor should point to the #1 spark plug terminal on the cap when fully seated. You may need to slightly rotate the rotor or the oil pump drive shaft to engage the gears.
   • Once seated, ensure the distributor body is oriented correctly as marked during removal.
   • Secure the distributor with the hold-down clamp, but do not fully tighten yet to allow for timing adjustments.
