I have a 66 F100 with a 352,it has sat for quite a few years and there was like grude rust goop all over the valves train,got it all cleaned up real nice,now I have been trying to get the distributor set,but it would not move,had to use a 2' pipe wrench and finally broke it free.Worked it back and forth until it spins freely all around,problem is the distributor is recessed to deep into the intake that the hold down dosnt even come close to holding it in place.Noticed when I had finally loosened the distributor at the base where it fits into the manifold,there appeared to be like rubber rolling out,is there a seal or gasket that needs to be replaced? I cant get the distibutor to pull out completely,I have beat on it still nothing,I was not going to pull it but there is no way to tighten down the distributor.is there anything holding the distributor in place internally? Hope someone can help,until then I wil continue to beat on it and hope I dont break anything!!!
