Replacing spark plug leads

[Jan van de Wouw <jvdwouw@xxxx>]

Hello all,

Since the leads to my spark plugs are allmost certainly about
20 years of age they are arcing through the insulation in wet
wheather, so I decided to replace them, along with the
distributor cap and rotor.
I allready have all the right parts from DMC Houston
and was going to replace them today...

I ended up cursing and doing other work since I couldn't figure
out how to reach teh distributor. Searching the work shop manual
I found a sentence saying
>"The mixture regulator must be removed to reach the distributor"
Then I searched for instrctions on how to do so, but found nothing
even resembling those instructions. I did however learn more about
how the injection works, so it wasn't all lost time.

Can anyone tell me if I really need to remove the mixture control
unit to replace the wires cap and rotor? If I do so, will I need
any extra parts like gaskets or such to reassemble everything
afterwards? Or should I just let my shop take care of this?
I don't mind working on these parts myself, but I only have access
to workspace on weekends, so everything I start on has to be fixed
and cleaned up by monday morning 08h00...

If I don't get any responses I'm goin to bring it to the shop anyway.
Thanks in advance,

JAN van de Wouw
