How do you install a distributor on a 1992 VW Jetta?

first ensure the engine timing marks(located on the crank pully) is lined up with TDC and the make sure you note where the plug lead to number one cylinder is on the dizzy cap, remove dizzy cap leaving the leads plugged in. unfasten the dizzy pinch bolt and remove the dizzy.it makes it easier at this point to fit the old dizzy cap to the new dizzy and mark with tipex or scratch a line with a scribe or screwdriver on the new dizzy body below where pluglead number one is. now turn the rotor arm on the new dizzy to match the position of the old one pre removal, remember that if the dizzy drive is a helical gear it will turn slightly to mesh the gears into position if its a got a locating key (a raised metal bit stretching from one side to the other of the base of the dizzy drive about 4 mm wide) this has to locate in the engine exactly but when located the rotor arm will lock into position. which ever type it is when the dizzy is fitted in place you turn the new dizzy until the mark you made on the body lines up with the centreline on the rotor arm or pluglead number one if cap is fitted. screw in the pinch bolt the car should start as this point but the ignition timing may be out and will need tweaking with a timing light.
