I opted to pull the distributor because I couldn't get a good enough grip on the slotted pinch bolt screw. I turned a spacer up so I could replace it with a 1/4" hex head bolt. While I was in there, I replaced the well-worn ignition points and condenser.
I was putting the distributor back in, and wiggling the motor back and forth to get the distributor to engage with the oil pump, when I made the realization that the motor is turning over a little TOO well for an engine with the transmission in gear! I'll focus on getting the motor running to confirm it, but I'm thinking a new clutch is on the horizon.
Looking on RockAuto I found a couple of clutch kits with the part number MU54731B and MU90911. Will either of these fit my 261? It has a five-speed transmission.
