In this video I show how I changed the original distributor with platinum for one with hall sensor (electronic ignition). I used a xing-ling (Chinese) distributor that I bought on Mercado Livre, which is working great so far.

This is the link where I bought it:

What I show here:
Explaining the difference between the distributor with platinum and the new distributor with hall sensor and electronic ignition
Showing how the central axis is/is inverted on the Chinese distributor
Difference between the distributor caps, which in the new one uses the so-called cap with pin, more modern
Tips before taking the old distributor out of the car
Discovering and marking which cylinder number 1 is to facilitate after the exchange
Removing the old distributor
Installing the new distributor
Point adjustment, observation over the hall sensor window
Final considerations
