The procedure for connecting high-voltage wires





Removal and installation



1. Remove the high voltage wires from the spark plugs and remove the distributor cap along with the wires.


2. Disconnect the wire from the negative terminal of the ignition coil and the tube of the vacuum ignition timing regulator from the distributor.

3. By turning the crankshaft, set the piston of the first cylinder to the TDC position and check that the distributor rotor is directed to the contact connected to the spark plug of the first cylinder.

Attention! Do not turn the crankshaft before installing the distributor.


4. Mark the position of the distributor rotor on the distributor cam and the distributor itself in relation to the cylinder block.

5. Unscrew the distributor mounting plate and, without turning the distributor, remove it, be sure to mark the new second position of the distributor rotor on the cam.

6. When installing the distributor, the direction of the rotor must match the second mark on the distributor cam, since when the drive teeth are engaged, the rotor will turn counterclockwise.



7. Fully install the distributor and check the alignment of the position of the distributor rotor (1) with a mark on the distributor cam (2), applied before removal. When aligning the marks, tighten the distributor mounting bolt.



8. When installing a new distributor, turn the crankshaft to the TDC position of the first cylinder until the ignition timing marks match (A - marks on the cover, B - mark on the pulley).

9. Install the distributor above its seat so that the vacuum ignition timing regulator is opposite the guide tube of the oil level gauge, while taking into account the rotation of the distributor rotor when the drive teeth are engaged.
