Cosmic or anyone that knows, how do you get this piece off? I don't want to damage anything but I figured once that cir-clip was off it would just slide out. Thanks!

X2.... no need to remove the center shaft, spindle, cams or anything to swap out that bad vac. advance? In theory, you don't even need to remove the cap / rotor to make the swap. Did curiousity kill the cat here?
HOWEVER, now that you are in like Flint... the circlip is the only thing holding it together. No bearings, just a two washers under that "C" clip. Maybe corossion and grit is making it tight on the shaft. OR are you talking about the entire dist. assembly? I assume you are just talking about the center spindle...exploded diag. is in Rave in section - PDF...LJ...WMLJ97E.pdf Section 86 - Electrical.. .page 4.
ALSO, and maybe it is just me, but it appears that your Dist. is rotated clockwise about 90deg. from where it normally would be situated (as far as I have ever seen). Or could it be the angle of the picture.
All of the following is from Rave...Engine overhaul page 24...

Pretty much, I read in your thread about if you pulled on the advance too hard you could mess up the springs and cams below. Everything looked fine so I tried to leave the advance sticking out a little like I had found it before. Got it to stumble a little but it never fired up. Still that seems to be on the right track.

My #1 lead is where the #4 is on this chart. But it seems to match up to where the rotor is pointing and the piston is near the top.
I'm going to look around and see what it will cost to have the engine timed correctly.
