Re: Nasty Little Distributor
Hey everyone -
I got the nasty little distributor out!
I tried to pull it with the manifold - but this did not work. So, I just kept trying various combinations of soaking everything in PB Blaster and tapping away with a ballpeen hammer. Finally, I broke out the biggest pipe wrench I had (because my smaller ones just would not get a good bite) - and really started torquing on the stubborn little thing. It finally gave way and I was able to see the gap expand in between the collar and the manifold. A few quick taps upward, and it popped right out. The manifold came off no problem right after.
The shaft was pretty chewed up afterwards.
I was so excited that the distributor did not end up winning, that I completely forgot to take pictures of it - but, trust me, they would not have been pretty.
Anyways - thank you for all the help with this one!
Problem solved!
