[DML] DOA who?

[Deloreanernst@xxxx]

Funny thing- I had just decided that I should spring for the cost of 
membership in the DOA. Haven't seen the DOA editorial, but I have survived so 
far without DOA membership, but I wouldn't be an owner if not for the DML! 
:))

Speaking of which... today a well experienced shade tree mechanic friend and 
I tried to replace the distributor cap, rotor, plugs and wires. Simple, 
right? It took us no time at all... to give up! (Yes, I DO have the 
workshop manual, not that it was any help. The tech bullletin book I've 
ordered, but hasn't arrived yet. All I could find of use was the spark plug 
gap.) 
I tried looking thru the archives... all 7000 plus posts... using the search 
engine... before and after that experience. A great thing to do if time is 
no object. It's probably in there. But I can't recall the procedure being 
covered since I've been reading the posts (since last August.) I kept 
getting 104+ responses, with nondescript names, that only sounded like they 
might have the info but didn't. After about an hour, I decided to ask my 
fellow owners, not the brainless search engine. Please help me out here: not 
only the tune up procedure, but any more selective way of searching the 
archives.
