My distributer is the older electronic ignition and I never saw him install it, so I can't tell you where it is located
I still had spark with my old Ford, enough spark to cause it to backfire when it packed it in.
When you start replacing expensive parts that were working fine it's almost time to take it to a shop for a quick check up.
We can try helping you, but it's pretty tough to diognose some problems on the net.
I just don't want to see you blow all your coin on unnessary parts
