Is that the distributed cap? Just label the wires with some masking tape and remove the cap and re-install it. I havent done a entire distributer before, so I dont know. Read the manual?

if you have a manual it should be described in there.

But if not, see my timing belt write-up thats linked in the FAQ. I describe how to do it in there.

if you have the factory manual it's in there.

look for the sections that describe how to do valve adjustments or the timing belt section, it should be in one of those two sections.
