Distributer turns by hand why?
If the whole dist. turns then the dist. hold down clamp is loose. If the rotor button turns all the way around then the roll pin in the bottom of the dist. drive gear is broken. Remove the dist. and inspect the cam gear and dist. gear closely. A BAD OR LOCKED UP OIL PUMP IS THE REASON FOR THIS.

How do you remove distributor from an ea falcon fuel injected?
Hi Removal of the distributor is a little difficult,you will need to remove dist cap and move it back out of the way,the retaining bolt is located at the back of the base of the dist,you will need an extension bar to reach and remove along with the small lug that holds dist,when you have carried out those steps you should be able to move dist backwards and forwards,the problem you may have at this point is a build up of crud on the base of dist where it goes through engine block,if you can move it upwards a small ammount then get a can of WD40 and fit the tube supplied to it and insert it under dist where it meets the block and give it a good burst it will travel down and lubricate and soften the crud,a little effort moving dist back and forth should allow removal.
