Re: 1934 Standard 8 Distributor Removal

The drive slot in the top of the cam-driven shaft is slightly off-center, take note of its position before removal and do not turn the engine over unless the shaft is in place. Likewise take note of the distributor rotor position before removal. The distributor drive key is likewise slightly off center to correspond to the same feature on the distributor drive shaft. Remove the distributor at the cylinder head (3 bolts) and take note of the position of the distributor body, for example the position of the grease cup.

And in the interests of correctness, your 1100/1101/1102 is an "Eight", not a Standard Eight. The use of Standard as part of the model name ended in 1932.
