  Q: How do you remove the distributor for Chevrolet Tracker?

  A: To remove the distributor, start by unplugging the distributor primary lead wire from the coil and disconnecting the electrical connector for the Igniter. Locate the number one cylinder spark plug wire terminal by looking for a raised "1" on the distributor cap or tracing the wire back from the number one spark plug. Remove the distributor cap and position the rotor to point at the number one spark plug terminal. Make alignment marks on the distributor body, gear case, and distributor coupling (for 1996 models). Remove the distributor hold down bolt and clamp, then pull the distributor straight out. When installing the distributor, ensure it is inserted in the same position as before and mesh the helical gears by turning the rotor slightly. Check the alignment marks and rotor position, then place the hold down clamp and loosely install the bolt. Install the distributor cap, plug in the electrical connectors, reattach the spark plug wires, and connect the Battery Cable. Finally, check and adjust the ignition timing as needed.

  Q: How to disassemble and reassemble the distributor on Chevrolet Tracker?

  A: On later models, avoid disassembling the distributor; replace if damaged. Disconnect the battery's negative terminal. Remove the distributor, generator, Igniter, and vacuum advance. Take out screws holding the generator plate, checking for smooth rotation. If not, replace it. For distributor gear removal, grind set pin ends and knock out. If stuck, use a gear puller. To install, align and tap a new pin into place, securing its ends. Ensure generator base plate aligns with distributor grooves and that the vacuum advance pin is correct. Reassemble by reversing the disassembly steps and adjust the rotor air gap accordingly.
