I have a v8 with the thunderbo

I have a v8 with the thunderbolt ignition trying to change the rotor and cap. can someone tell me how the rotor comes off? I gave it a pull but its tight dont want to break anything.
 
Should be four screws on the c

Should be four screws on the cap base that need to be turned CCW 180 degrees to release. Then pull cap up.
 
got the cap off but the rotor

got the cap off but the rotor dosent want to pull off like most ive seen thought there may be a secret be fore I go to prying thanks
 
Pull it off w/a channel locks

Pull it off w/a channel locks while standing over it or split the plastic part w/a chisel; they are loctited in place.
 
"[b]"Should Locktite be us

""Should Locktite be used on a replacement Rotor?"

Ayuh,... I don't....

It ain't like it can go anywhere...."
 
"Bondo, I understand your thou

"Bondo, I understand your thoughts completely! BUT, it's those Damn Design Engineers who Baffle me. Why do they specify Loctite to begin with? (Be serious now.) I've never experienced a Rotor popping off! Oh well, time to go finish putting our craft to bed. Al W."
 
"Al:

I agree w/Bondo. I&


"Al:

I agree w/Bondo. I've never loctited one. In fact, I removed the rust from the dist. shaft and dabbed a little neverseize on it."
 
"Ayuh,....

I Donno,...
Pro


"Ayuh,....

I Donno,...
Probably the designed cure for a precieved issue...

I still ain't gonna start putting Loctite on'em..."
