OK. You have to be careful what you type and what you say. We can't "imagine" you did this right as "we aren't there."
Distributor......Don't know. I'd be tempted to get something you can squirt it out with and then hose it down with some sort of WD-40 type product
Frankly, this never came up with me, as I'd yank that thing right out. Here's the thing.........the distributor has a screwdriver like drive. If you carefully mark where the rotor points and where the housing (vacuum advance) points, you can stuff it right back in again. You probably should check the timing, anyhow when you get it running.
