On the distributor shaft, there is a painted mark, aline this with the two holes in the distributor shaft, located just below the gear. Mark the outside of the distributor where the rotor is pointed. On the inside of the distributor, you will find two cast marks, one stamped with an 8 and the other with a 6. For V-8's rotate the rotor until it is aligned with the 8. Now mark this location on the outside of the distributor. They should be about 45 degrees apart. The first mark is the direction the rotor should be pointing when you begin to install the distributor. When the distributor is fully seated, the rotor should be pointed to the 8 and the second mark. Snug the distributor into place and place the distributor cap on and tighten the screws for the cap. The plug wire post should be perpendicular to the center line of the engine.

How do you replace a distributor in a 1995 Toyota Camry 2.2L?

The distributor is bolted to the head and is driven off the cam. The easiest way to replace it is to remove the distributor cap and place it on the valve cover, leaving the spark plug wires connected. Disconnect the connector at the distributor and unbolt the distributor for the head. Position the new distributors shaft in the same position as the old distributor so it can be installed the same way. The distributor drive must engage the end of the camshaft. Lubricate the new distributors O-ring with oil, Install the new distributor, wiggling the shaft slightly can help locate engage the camshaft. After bolting it in and connecting the wiring harness, you can install the cap/rotor. If you are installing an new cap/rotor, you can remove the wires one at a time so not to mix up their positions.

How do you get the distributor and firing order correct after you pull the distributor and wires on a Chevy 350?

You should have had the #1 piston at TDC, and marked the location of the distributor. You could then just reverse everything. Now you are going to have to get the #1 piston at TDC, install the distributor with the rotor pointing to the #1 plug position on the distributor cap. A good repair manual will help with all this if you can't get it done. Most auto parts stores sell them. Faceing the engine from the front, the #1 plug is the first one on your right, driver's side, the fireing order is 18436572.

I don't believe a 1998 Regal, regardless of engine, will have a distributor. It will have an electronic ignition that outperforms any distributor of old.
