I used a small mirror and worked with one hand to see the cap screws. After you loosen the screws pull the cap out with the wires attached. You put the new cap in the same way.

 

It's tight, no doubt about that, but it's doable. I had a '94 with the 3.9 years ago and remember working on the cap and rotor. Yes, you have to stretch and work in awkward positions. Yes, you will learn new words to NOT let the 5 year old kid hear. You will need to remove some stuff for better access, but the only way I can see making a hole to work on it is to remove the windshield and cut through the front of the dash. Not really feasible. I remember laying a bunch of cardboard down and crawling in there.

 

Okay friends... I'm suppose removing some hardware is the way I'll do it eventually. (Got that AC thing to hurdle first)..Have to get set-up sort things out when I remove everything. ALL POINTS WELL TAKEN
TY SO MUCH AS USUALL.

 

My old truck someone cut a hole in the cowl to get to the distributor

 

Oh wow... I don't think I'll go that far YET...imma gonna try the removing the top side hardware first. TY for that idea tho, for real.

 

I think there is plenty of room with everything removed

 

We will find out soon enough soon as I get this AC thing behind me. I will take photos sometimes photos speak louder than words and help more than an explanation on occasion. Not in your case of course but to another rookie you know. No need of sending a butcher photos of how to slice a ham you know what I mean 😁

 

QUESTION...How do I RESET the "FLASH CODES" For the DIAGNOSTIC TESTING process, on a
"" 1994 1500 5.2 L 2WD ""..... I got ALL the IGNITION parts replaced..(done it myself, wasn't as hard as I suspected)...HOWEVER, it STILL begins to miss AFTER WARMING UP @ IDLE ...AND... WHEN IT HITS OVERDRIVE IT CAUSES A SHAKE... Now as long as the speed is up and the RPM is up it runs fine and when you really get into it it'll get somewhere in a hurry. I'm hoping the engine codes will tell me something but it's not showing anything but a battery disconnect and a 37 and a 33 which I believe are old recorded codes. Any kind of input will help. But I was hoping to reset those codes to see if it picks up anything else.

 

Unhook the battery for a few minutes. Hook it back up and see what codes return. You will have 12 and 55 for sure. 12 is battery has been disconnected and 55 is end of test.

 

Okay after I unhooked the battery for a while and hook it back up do I have to start it up and let it run or maybe drive it some for it to pick up another trouble code
