Best Answer

To remove the distributor cap remove the two screws. To remove the distributor, you must remove the access plate on the passenger side behind the passenger side front tire. Use a socket and ratchet to turn the crankshaft pulley to top dead center. There is an arrow on block at top of pulley. Allign the second mark from the left on the pulley with this arrow. Remove distributor cap and see if rotor is pointing to the #1 cylinder contact point that is marked on the cap. If so you are at top dead center. If it is pointing `180 degrees away from the #1 then rotate crankshaft 360 degrees and you will be at top dead center. Now remove the two bolts that hold the distributor on. Gently pull the distributor out. you may have to turn it a little either way but it should just pull out.
