Intake Manifold Out

My friend visited during the weekend and advised me on how to correctly remove and install the distributor. We removed the distributor cap and marked the position of the rotor to the firewall as it happened to be pointing straight rearward. Then it was easy to pull out the distributor and remove the intake manifold.


Everything seemed to be OK inside the engine so I just covered it up so no dirt would get in. My friend took the manifold to a machine shop so they could plane the thermostat housing and media blast the old paint off. I'll paint it again when I get it back.

Next I will rebuild the carburetor.
