distributer cap / rotor replacement 850

posted by  someone claiming to be UK Ed on  Wed May 5 03:07 CST 2004 [RELATED]

I have a 2.5 850 SE estate, 1994, 65k. The car was bought 3 months ago, and I thought I'd change the spark plugs / dist cap / rotor arm. I've managed to unscrew 2 of the bolts holding the dist cap on, but the last one (at a 6 o'clock position)is nigh on impossible to get to! I have removed the hp leads from the dist cap, and taken the top of the air filter off, but still cannot get to the bottom bolt to release the dist cap. Haynes manual rates this an easy operation, and I'm not feeling too good about failing at this hurdle!! Any ideas?
