Daewoo washer parts dist

To reset the dist. you need to put #1 cylinder on top dead center and turn the oil pump shaft so the dist shaft will seat in the oil pump shaft, when you do this be sure the rotor is pointing to #1 spark plug in the dist. cap. Then replace the hold down bolt to the dist. and just snug it down.
When you put #1 cylinder on top dead center you should be able to look at the timing mark and it should be on zero. Once you get the truck started then you can recheck the timing and tighten down the dist. bolt. Hope this helps.

Turn or line up, number one cylinder at top dead center
on compression stroke,not bottom dead center

Have the crank pulley timing line, in line with the
tab on timing cover at zero degrees

Turn the oil pump if you can't drop the dist in
the motor

Line up the dist to the correct position for the
firing order,you need that before you start

Draw a picture of wire positions & dist location
first

Will need the old fashion timing light to set timing
with vacuum hose of dist advance

Don't start the car !!!

Can you see the part from the whole where the distributor goes ?
If you can you may be able to fish it out.
Your distributor has a drive shaft that goes from the dist to the oil pump in the oilpan.
Hopefully it is sitting on top of the shaft.
Their are know oil lines at the bottom of you engine, everything is internal.
If you cant fish them out from the top, the oilpan will have to be removed.
I think your best bet is to try to remove the pieces from the dist hole with a magnet on a shaft or maybe very sticky tape on a shaft.
Good luck, Robert

Best practice is to remove #1 spark plug, roll engine over by hand until #1 piston at top dead center on compression stroke. Remove dist cap , find a surface outside of dist to mark direction rotor is pointing then mark dist body position. Remove dist ,you will notice as you lift dist, rotor will spin backward keep an eye on it, when the rotor stops spinning as you lift, that will be your dropin position for new distributor. That will get you close,enough to start car but you will need a timing light to set exact timing

if you didnot mark rotor orientation before removing pyt engine on top dead center # 1 cyl line roter up to #1 plugwire post on dist cap with a light look down the shaft bore for a slot that matches the end of dist shaft if they do not match p[osition get a long screw driver an turn the shaft in engine until they do then drop dist you may have to turn the rotor backwards about a tooth when you start to drop whn the cam and dist gears mesh it will line up oil pump drive shaft to dist shaft

replace the TFI ignition module (mounted on the outside of the distributor) and the distruibutor pickup ( inside the distributor) and the problem will go away, I would also replace the coil if it is orignal.
