Capisco. You guys make it sound so easy though. That plastic clip holder doesn't appear to be built to be replaceable from what I can tell - how can I disconnect the wires and then reattach them? Especially from working underneath the hood. Seems like either I pull the distro and bench fix it, replace it, or else just epoxy the shiztu out of the broken plastic clip holder as it sits in the engine bay.
I pulled a better looking distrubtor from an 87 245 at the PNP today and it was not fun at all - had to remove the radiator just to gain access to a place of purchase on the engine block with which to pivot off of for levering it upwards with a wrench, since it wasn't coming up just by pulling. Those manuals also make a laughingstock of how difficult it is to remove; i think the only thing capable of pulling that out on its own is an engine hoist. My last resort is just putting this one in there but I am not sure about getting the timing right with the cam, etc. Let alone just getting mine out without draining and removing the radiator.
Gonna epoxy the clip holder in place tomorrow and see what that does!
