Hi to all, I am having trouble to take out the distributor's drive shaft. That four inch long little shaft with a gear on it's end that goes down to meet the crank to be driven and has that slot in it to drive the distributor. It won't go down or up, and it won't turn either. And the crank is not turning it either. There is no rust or dirt. It is halfway up, being disconnected from the worm drive. I'm sure, the two washers in the bottom are out of position and won't let it go down, but now that I would like to take it out, it won't budge. Any suggestions from someone who knows? Zoltan |
