I'm about to remove and replace a distributor on my H to check the advance mechanism's weights and springs. I've never done this before and can't find a breakdown of steps in the archives.

I've heard somewhere there's a slight rotation that happens upon removal because of the cant of the gears so . . . 5) Mark where the rotor points after I get the distributor out, to allow for this movement. And, of course, reverse steps to replace. Is this procedure correct? Any pointers? TIA
