Re: transam gta distributer help

Remove the bolt; lift.

You'll have to remove the gear so you can pull the shaft so you can change the pickup coil. Requires about a 3/16" punch or thereabouts, can't recall exactly but it's near that size. Make sure you note which way the gear goes on the shaft (there's an alignment dot) because there's an odd # of teeth, meaning things will line up weird if you put the gear back on backwards.
