HI,
OK I seam to think I could just turn the center shaft.. I didn't realize / think it was attached to the gear.. Makes scenes how else could the cam turn the distributor.... OK.. Not sure of removing the gear part?? Maybe I'll just fill the oil up thru the heads so it coats the lifter and runs...

HI,
Working from the ground with Jack stands can't get the right angle to get both hands up there.. might be different if it had a lift. but I'm front/back yard on my own stuff..
