I need a little bit of help. The distributor in my Honda failed, it start to made the squeeky noise of a failing ball bearing.
Hondas are famous for this issue, so i dissasembled the distributor.
But after i have removed the main shaft i am puzzled how to change the Bearing.
Problems:
- The Bearing is fixed in place with a shield, but the screws are not accessible, a sensor is in front.
- The shaft is fixed axial, its obviously press fitted into the bearing
- at the single top sensor i noticed a "Spring Pin" (dont now the english word..) that secures the sensor on the sahft. The other two sensors are press fitted to the shaft.
Soooo i guesss....
1. Step: Pull the single upper sensor from the shaft.
2. Step: Press the whole shaft down through the bearing.
3. Step: Unscrew the shield and change the bearing..
4. Step: Assemble the other way round...
Could somebody that has allready done this job confirm my thoughts? Any tips and tricks are welcome.
Thank you.
