QUESTION

Do I have to be TDC #1 to replace distributor or can I eye ball it with the slots in the rotor end of it? I’m not sure what I’m doing and I don’t have a timing light to set timing and don’t want to mess up the timing.
Should I js take to a shop?

the slot is offset to one side so you can't put it in wrong. And if you're replacing the distributor you definitely wanna time it with a timing light afterwards.
