how do i remove my distributor? i can do it on a honda never had to on a 240 lol

Two bolts... I believe they are like 14's, maybe 12's... undo those, and after unplugging all of your wires, just slightly rotate it as you pull it out. You'll feel it.

how do i put it back it without messing messing up the timing?

[JuMPiiN]

Set the car to TDC, make sure the dots on the CAS line up, slide it back in and the dot should spin to the right and little bit and line up. There's a right up on FRsport on how to settle CAS. It's pretty simple.

what is the cas? sorry im new to nissan lol

[JuMPiiN]

I could be mistaken from the SR and KA since I only had a KA for like a week and never looked at it.

But the CAS is the distributor type thing on the side of the head and valve cover.

thanks for the help btw how hard is the sr swap in a 93 240sx

[JuMPiiN]

Really easy, I did te SR swap and swapped to a 5 speed in 2 days with one other person. I had a plug and play harness though.

Step 1. Set motor to TDC on the COMPRESSION STROKE (2nd notch on crank pulley...usually orange.) 27MM socket for the crank pulley, or 1 1/16"

Step 2. Don't know if it's on the compression stroke? Take off the distributor cap, and if the rotor points toward spark plug #1, then it's on the compression stroke.

Step 3. There are two TEN millimeter bolts but don't remove them, or even loosen them yet.

Step 4. Make a mark on the distributor, and the timing cover, so you can get it as close as it was before.

Step 5. You can now take out the distributor.

Step 6. When you reinstall it, make SURE the rotor still points toward the FIRST spark plug wire.

Step 7. Match up your line that you made in step 4.


DO NOT TURN THE MOTOR AT ALL DURING THIS PROCESS!!!!

Oh, and the SR is a simple swap. But keep the KA. :)

the cas is the crank angle sensor, it should be inside the distributor, it will look like a disk or wheel with little notches close to the edge of it
