    Distributor stuck???

    Well, I went to remove my dizzy today to check the over all internal condition of the components and try the lazy mans overhaul that I've been reading about. I removed the bolt and the nut/washer that holds the dizzy down but the sucker does not want to budge. I tapped it lightly with a hammer to see if I could dislodge it and still nothing. I have a Chiltons and Haynes manuals (they make better table leg levelers than reference manuals) and they state nothing more. Is there anything I am missing? Or do I need to go straight gorilla nuts?

    Disregard the thread--------the dizzy comes off easier when you take off the third bolt underneath. Crisis averted.
