Remove all spark plugs and turn the engine over until the #1 piston is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke. The rotor should be pointing at the #1 plug wire connection on the distributor cap. Rotate the distributor if necessary to line it up.

Took the distributor out of a 1995 acura integra ls and i forgot how it came out how do i put distributor back?

You have to take the spark plugs out, manually turn the engine over until cylinder number one is at top dead center, then turn the distributor until it points to cylinder number one and re-stab it. Normally an advanced procedure. If you get it wrong, it can cause engine damage. I'd have it taken to a shop.
