tributor Drive Shaft Bushing Driver/Burnisher Tool
C-3053. Insert the tool and bushing into the bore.
(2) Drive bushing and tool into position, using a
hammer (Fig. 64).
(3) As the burnisher is pulled through the bushing,
the bushing is expanded tight in the block and bur-
nished to correct size (Fig. 65).DO NOT ream this
bushing.
CAUTION: This procedure MUST be followed when
installing a new bushing or seizure to shaft may
occur.
(4) Install the intake manifold.
DISTRIBUTOR INSTALLATION
NOTE: Before installing the distributor, the oil
pump drive shaft must be aligned to number one
cylinder.(1) Rotate crankshaft until No.1 cylinder is at top
dead center on the firing stroke.
(2) When in this position, the timing mark of
vibration damper should be under ª0º on the timing
indicator.
(3) Install the shaft so that after the gear spirals
into place, it will index with the oil pump shaft. The
slot on top of oil pump shaft should be aligned
towards the left front intake manifold attaching bolt
hole (Fig. 66).
(4) Install distributor, refer to Group 8D, Ignition
Systems for the proper procedure.
After the distributor has been installed, its rota-
tional position must be set using theSET SYNC
mode of the DRB scan tool. Refer to Checking Dis-
tributor Position following the Distributor Installa-
tion section in Group 8D, Ignition system.
Do not attempt to adjust ignition timing by
rotating the distributor. It has no effect on igni-
tion timing. Adjusting distributor position will
effect fuel synchronization only.

CRANKSHAFT
A crankshaft which has undersize journals will be
stamped with 1/4 inch letters on the milled flat on
the No.3 crankshaft counterweight (Fig. 71).
FOR EXAMPLE:R2 stamped on the No.3 crank-
shaft counterweight indicates that the No.2 rod jour-
nal is 0.025 mm (0.001 in) undersize. M4 indicates
that the No.4 main journal is 0.025 mm (0.001 in)
undersize. R3 M2 indicates that the No.3 rod journal
and the No.2 main journal are 0.025 mm (0.001 in)
undersize.
When a crankshaft is replaced, all main and con-
necting rod bearings should be replaced with new
bearings. Therefore, selective fitting of the bearings
is not required when a crankshaft and bearings are
replaced.
