     Note 1.  Early DM2P4 distributors use two screws to retain the points.  
                    Later DM2P4 distributors use one screw to retain the points.

     Note 2.  There are two distributor shafts found in 45D4 distributors.  The more common shaft has a longer points cam than the relatively rare shaft with a short cam.  Remove the rotor and measure the distance from the top of the distributor shaft to the top of the points cam.  A dimension of about .420" indicates the shaft with the longer points cam.  Distributors with this shaft will take the Ignitors indicated in the table above.  A dimension of about .525" indicates the short points cam.  The Ignitors will not work in distributors with this shaft.
