Good morning,
Does anyone have any tips for freeing up a stuck distributor? Wanting to adjust my timing but the distributor is stuck solid. After 27 years I understand that the seal can deteriorate and stick the distributor solid. I have removed the retaining bracket, liberally coated with a good quality penetrant spray and tried tapping it but it just won't budge. The position access is restrictive and obviously I don't want to brake it. Does anybody have any experience of freeing one of the up? I don't need to remove it, just get it to move a few degrees. So any suggestions of tools or ways to tackle this appreciated. Cheers matt
