LT1 issue

John Nechiporchik · 07-11-2014, 06:10 PM

Rob,A minor waterfall came out after the dist cap fasteners were loosened. The area where the rotor and cap appeared OK. The water was behind the white plastic shield. The metal shield was rusty.
Incidentally, The unit still contained the cam timing disc and module. Is this still necessary with the crank trigger or can I take them out?
Also, I could not find a socket to remove the bottom two (recessed) fasteners on the cap.I had to modify a small pair of channel locks to remove them. What size star or metric is that??

Also, filled the Connector receptacle with silicone as discussed earlier.

Thanks,
John
