Got a question for the experts. When my engine was rebuilt, it seems that when the distributor was installed, it is turned counterclockwise so far that the little air tube on the vacuum advance makes the rubber tubing bend very sharpely and rub through against the air conditioner mounting. What is involved with popping out the distributor and turning it slightly so the rubber tube on the vacuum advance doesn't destroy itself? Bentley says that the distributor is actually two pieces and you need a special puller to pull the shaft out of the engine.
