    Cant get dist to seat down all the way.... HELP ASAP

    the reason why i think it was bent was that when the shaft was down in the hole, it was leaning toward one side. when the melling went in, and in the hole, it was straight up and down. so i went with the melling.

    actully, i had a guy come over, put it at TDC, install a Melling Shaft and the thing just dropped in! I guess that the ARP shaft is just bent a slight bit!

    Cant get dist to seat down all the way.... HELP ASAP

    ok guys, i am not sure what im going to do now. just for reference, does the pointy end go down or up? The FMS shaft doesnt have a star thing on it like the ARP one does.

    would that matter for changing the dist? i marked where the rotor is supposed to point, so wouldnt that keep it all the same? i knwo i would have to readjust the timing though.....

    jason, i was also using the ARP one BEFORE the new dist install. if the stock one is only a few bucks, im gonna pick up one... i am really only testing to make sure that the dist is bad and thats why i dont have spark.

    Cant get dist to seat down all the way.... HELP ASAP

    ok, explain to me why i have to cut off 1/4" when the other one that came outof it is the exact same size? rubber mallet theory didnt work. i guess im cutting. edit: what if i just went to the parts store and got a stock replacement oil pump shaft? should it be shorter and i just use the dist...
