yes you have to remove the pin from the gear and slide the shaft from the distribiter then change the pickup coil not that hard . i would use a ac delco part
i had some problems with aftermarket coils just my :2cents:
thanks for the input, is the metal piece around the coil available to replace or do i need to get one from the junkyard.? mine is rusted and i cracked it. will a dist from any 4.3 work if i'm replacing the guts?
