Removing a broken small steel screw from the aluminum distributor housing will be a challenge. Start with removing the distributor from the engine so you can work with it in the bench/vise. If there is some of the broken screw exposed you can heat the housing and grab the broken screw with vise grips gently working it back and forth until it loosens up. Or, if you're good with a drill and have good drill bits, try drilling out the broken piece starting with the smallest drill bit you have. You have to drill it dead center or the bit will walk of center into the soft aluminum. Clean out the remains with the appropriate tap. If all else fails, turn in the distributor for a re-manufactured one and don't over tighten the screws during assembly. A dab of anti-seize on the threads wouldn't hurt.
Yes, there is a bolt and a plate that holds the distributor down.
pull the hose off the vacuum advance and some of them have a set screw inside the hole.
the number one is located to the right (towards engine)of the left instalation screw of the cap. if you are able to see it it has 1 on the cap.
As the screw holes on the distributor caps are used to hold the cap down, when stripped, the cap could be JB Weld. ?æRe-drill the screw hole once the weld cures.
No only one screw holding the distributor down will cause the cap to be crooked and damage to the cap and rotor will result
Get an Easy Out (left-handed) reverse drill bit that is smaller than the shaft of the broken screw. Run your drill counter-clockwise at a low rpm, while keeping the bit centered on the broken end of the screw. You might want to drill a smaller pilot hole with a normal drill bit first. At some point after cutting and weakening the inside of the broken-off screw end, the left-handed drill bit will catch on the metal and twist it out. I think there are videos of how this is done online. Getting the bits can be expensive, but they're invaluable for something like this.
Idle is computer controlled, there is no adjustment screw.
How do you adjust the full power screw in on the VE injection pump on 1993 dodge diesel
Most of the time it breaks off and you will need to drill it out and replace screew.
Using an angle drill, drill a small hole in the sensor. Thread a screw in the hole, and use it to pull the sensor out.
Should be a 7mm
If you look near the jet you will see the broken wing. Right next to the broken wing is your missing screw. Good luck!
