If you go to www.autozone.com and register for free, you input your car info and look up a part. After you get to the page with the part and prices listed, look to the right and you will find a section that says "YOUR RIDE. YOUR GUIDE." When you click this, you will get the actual pages from the repair manual that show you how to replace this part. I use it constantly and love it that I get the manual info without shelling out the $25 for the hard copy.

That is a valid general suggestion. However there is no distributor on your 1987 Celebrity. It has an ignition module and a crankshaft sensor controlled by the ECM.
