spray some liquid wrench, WD40, LPS or something around base where its stuck in the block, let it sit, then do it again.
Then give a few safe taps on the housing.

Have you tried grabbing it with an oil filter wrench?

Use the SEARCH function.

The wd-40 worked,


I let it sit overnight with a pool of wd in the distributer valley and it pulled out like butter, I guess it wasnt badly stuck.



thanks guys

glad to hear it worked.
Just dont use it as a cooking spray.

Now when you put the distributor back in, use ani-seize on the distributor housing where it goes into the block, both on the upper part you can see and the part down inside.

as are alot of problems, if everyone used the search function for everything this forum would be pretty slow and eventually die
