Step 3: Distributor Installation
1. Turn the crankshaft so that the No. 1 cylinder is at top dead center.
2. Align the distributor housing and gear mating marks.
3. Install the distributor to the engine while aligning the slot or groove of the distributor's installation flange with the distributor installation stud.
Step 1: Spark Plug Cable
Improper arrangement of spark plug cables will induce voltage between the cables, causing misfiring and developing a surge at acceleration in high-speed operation.
Therefore, be careful to arrange the spark plug cables properly by the following procedure.
1. Install the spark plug cable clams as shown in the illustration.
2. The numerals on the support and clamp indicate the spark plug cable No.
3. Pay attention to the following items when the spark plug cables are installed.
a. Install the cables securely to avoid possible contact with metal parts.
b. Install the cables neatly, ensuring they are not too tight, loose, twisted or kinked.
