We have the distributor out of the neighbor's H. The shaft is extremely stiff, but can be rotated by hand with effort. I think it is best to disasemble and clean up the shaft and bushing. He is thinking soaking in penetrating oil is the answer. Well it is his machine but the penetrating oil (have taken the plug out and added there) has not worked yet.
I am unfamiliar with the way the gear is held on the shaft. The pin retainer does have a small head stil protruding from where is was inserted. I am assuming you have to take the drive gear off to remove the shaft.
How is that pin extracted in order to remove the gear from the shaft? Also let me know if the gear has to be taken off. This guy is kinda gun shy with me taking things like that apart.
thanx
