How much does it cost to replace O ring in a distributor?
The o-ring is only about a dollar or so and the labor consists of removing the dist. cap, marking where the rotor is pointing as well as marking where the ditributor base is set. After marking reference points, remove the 15mm bolt that holds the dist. retainer in. Gently turn the distributor back and forth while pulling up at the same time.Once the dist. is removed the o-ring will either be under the distributor or around the round hole on the intake. Installation is the reverse of removal, just make sure to reference the marks to ensure proper realignment upon installation.

Can the timing gear that you see when you remove the distributor on a 1969 350 Chevy engine be pulled out while removing the distributor and change the position of the gear that drives the distributor?
There is a gear on the distributor shaft and a gear on the end of the camshaft that it engages with. The gear on the camshaft cannot be removed as it is part of the camshaft. The gear on the distributor shaft can be removed if it is worn; however, this is rare. These two gears must be in proper mesh for the engine to run; one cog off and it will not start.If you need further assistance google ' finding top dead center on a 350 chevy'.
Where is Number 1 position on 1979 gm distributor cap?
Wherever the distributor rotor is pointing when the #1 piston is at TDC of it's compression cycle. When an engine comes from the factory it's supposed to always be in the same direction, but if the distributor has been removed and the person working on it wasn't too concerned, who knows WHERE it will be pointing. I can't believe that a distributor on a 79 has never been removed, so you'll need to find #1 TDC and figure it out from there.
Do you need top dead center to replace intake gasket?
No. Top dead center on the #1 piston is usually used for timing purposes. The crank shaft and the cam shaft are aligned using the timing chain. Proper timing is achieved manually (by turning the distributor) or by the cars computer. If you have an engine that has a distributor remove the cap and mark the rotor buttons position. Also mark the position of the distributor in reference to a point on the engine itself. It can now be removed and replaced in it's original position - but a timing light is always a good idea for setting the timing. Other than removing the distributor itself other components can be disconnected and the intake can be removed and the gasket changed. Replace everything in the reverse order you took them apart. Good luck with your project.
