Take off spark plug wires
Loosen 3 screws holding on distributor cap
Take off screw holding rotor
Loosen 3 bolts holding dizzy on the head

From there identify screws holding the Coil in place... will have a spring on the end. It's pretty straight forward from there. Reverse instructions to put everything back on. Sorry I've done this 3 times and can't really remember where the screws are but it's all pretty straight forward.

Someone else might be able to chime in with more details. Good luck

Can't get more straight forward than that.
You don't really have to loosen the actual dizzy bolts from the head though.

I guess I was thinking about when I changed my coil… I changed the igniter as well, mainly because these 2 parts work hand in hand in your dizzy and since I was in there I thought it would be wise to change this out as well. I must say though the igniter was not cheap.

I think I got mine for $165 from Len when he still worked for Acura.
