This. Take a bit of wood and place it on the distributor body, after greasing the o-ring, not the axle, medium taps, like starting a 16p framing nail sent my dizzy home. I used a 2x4 that I notched to fit over the shaft and ride on the body of the dizzy. Just make sure that the gear teeth are indexed and the body slides into the case to the o-ring, then use your tapping tool.
