Shout out to the members of this site- the info here got me through the work on my Bug that i hadn't undertaken in almost 15 years. Its not perfect by any means, but it sure makes me smile and gets lots of positive feedback at shows.

I know. When I put it back together, the notch was in that location. Can I move everything over to line it back up. Does it not have to be on the notch for tdc 1? _________________ 72 Super - Marina Blue

Rotate distributor, rotate relocate wires, retime. Good to go. |

This^^ or put the engine on TDC for #1. Pull the distributor. If the drive gear is installed wrong, pull it up and reinstall it correctly.
When I bought my bus, the engine builder installed the drive gear wrong. I could rotate the distributor body into the right position. However, the plug wires crossed over themselves for them to be positioned correctly in the cap.
I spent 15 minutes to pull the distributor and fuel pump. I then pulled and repositioned the drive gear correctly. The rotor now points at the notch on #1 when it's on TDC for #1. The distributor body is clocked correctly and the plug wires are on the distributor cap in the right holes which corrected the plug wires laying over themselves and touching. _________________ Contact me at [email protected]
