Quick distributor/pickup coil question

["Dave Grove" <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Take it out.
Chuck it up in a vise, and pry the reluctor off from the shaft (grip the
distributor underneath that little plastic bushing at the bottom of the
housing, - very easy to break otherwise, and a PIA to get one and replace
it.

You need to have access around the dist to get the "breaker plate" screws
out.
