Takes me about 5 minutes to change the cap and rotor. They can be found at any auto parts house for around $10.00 on the cap and $5.00 on the rotor.
Not firing any shots but how are you going to replace the distributer cap if you can't find it?
Will you be able to get the plug wires back into their correct locations?
Look to the rear of the engine compartment on top of the engine behind the air filter(if TBI). The cap is under the rear plenum cover if TPI.

Check out the tech articles and get yourself a Chilton's manual. there are a grand total of 2 screws holding the cap on, it's just a matter of making sure you snap the plug wires back on in the right order. Good luck...
