Changing rotor arm, 94 Corsa 1.4 Merit Auto

Post by 95corsamerit »

Hoping for some help

Just given my wifes car a mini service, plugs, leads, air filter, oil & filter, fitted new distributor cap, for the life of me I cant remove the rotor arm, from looking at the new one it just appears to push on/off, the existing will not come off

Any help would be appreciated !

just keep pulling it will come off
I had the same problem a few months ago couldn't get it off, just don't fall backwards when it eventualy does go like I did.
I found the shaft was all corroded just get a little file on it to clean it up before the new one goes on.
