2. Remove the ignition distributor cover. Do not disconnect high voltage wires.
3. Remove the distributor slider and dust seal under the slider. When assembling the distributor, install the dustproof gasket so that its protrusion fits into the groove on the edge of the distributor housing (see illustration).
The ignition distributor slider has a tide, which also goes into the groove. The ignition distributor cover also has a protrusion that is installed in the specified groove so that the cover does not rotate.

Thin lines, as if drawn with a pencil, on the cover of the distributor are traces of leakage currents. You can correct the situation by removing these marks with a screwdriver or a knife blade, and then painting over them with nail polish, all-purpose glue, or even lipstick.
