1.8 disty

Post by slimmyslim1420 »

when you put the 1.8 disty on your 2.5 kl-ze, does it matter that the #1 spark plug tower is in a different spot on the cap?

well you need to get the right position first. Imagine you are placing it on a k8.

The engine has to be set to TDC (top dead center). That marks your number one firing possition. You have to follow the K8 distributor firing order, not the KLZE firing order noted on the ze disty cap.

The engine does'nt have to be set to TDC. Just insert it into the key and rotate it until it lines up with the holes.
