F-134 Distributor removal?

I have removed the screws holding the distributor to the crankcase and have tried removing it by hand without luck. What types of persuasion should be used or am I missing something?

 

It doesn't even turn

 

Look uderneath the dist. body ,ther should be an oil fitting on the shaft(an oil hole with a cap on it), sometimes this gets wedged against the block.Turn the shaft clockwise a little, you won't be able to turn it much because the bottom of the shaft lines up with a slot in the oil pump driveshaft. But it should "wiggle out"

 

K, will give that a try.......thanks.

 

The oil fitting isn’t wedged against the block, I can get the spacer between the distributor and block to move, but the distributor isn’t moving at all. I sprayed it down with PB Blaster and I will see what happens in awhile.

 

Don't use vise grips on the shaft. Let the blaster work... trust me on this one!

 

I hear ya Kelly, that is why I asked what types of persuasion should be used in my first post.

 

After letting it soak overnight in PB Blaster and tapping under the distributor with a hammer it came out. It just didn't want to come out without a little persuasion.
