Did you replace the ignition switch or the crack angle sensor?

See the service manual on setting the CAS: Nicoclub.com/FSM

replace the distributor with a new

my question is if I have to unplug at any sensor, and / or perform some procedure to put the distributor to make 15 degrees

Greetings,Jerson

It's pretty basic. You need to remove the dist. and advance it one tooth on the gear by just turning it a tad. Replace and throw the timing light on there. But I'm sure 2 weeks later you probably got it...

The FSM will likely have a procedure that goes something like:

Set crank to top dead center.Insert the distributor so the rotor is in some specific position.Lock down distributor.
