The Distributor of Chevrolet Metro vehicles has the responsibility of providing the correct high voltage current from the ignition coil to the spark plugs the right sequence. Chevrolet Metro models from the past have been using mechanical distributors with breaker points as the type and these types call for some maintenance since they contain some wearing parts. In time, improvements resulted in the usage of electronic distributors that require Hall Effect sensors instead of mechanical parts and do not require frequent servicing. It has been used different styles of distributors installed in Chevrolet Metro vehicles within using dual points with electronic ignition systems. The main distinction lies in the triggering mechanisms: mechanical systems use breaker points while electronic systems implement the use of sensor for efficiency. Thus, with advancement in technology, distributor less ignition system including the coil on plug (COP) has replaced the distributor to great extent which can be considered as a great deal of advancement in Chevrolet Metro's ignition system.

Then you should withdraw the Distributor rotor from the Distributor housing, remove the cmp sensor cover from the cmp sensor and then opened the two screws that hold the cmp sensor in place on the Distributor housing. If need be, take off the two Distributor flange bolts and the Distributor housing of the Cylinder Head.

Installation starts with installing the cmp sensor to the Distributor housing and tightening it using two screws without full tightening. Then install the cmp sensor cover to the cmp sensor and align the signal rotor ridge with the ridge on the cmp sensor by rotating the signal rotor. Adjust the air gap of the signal rotor (0.2 - 0.4 mm, 0.008-0.016 in) by shifting cmp sensor relative to signal rotor and tighten cmp sensor retaining screws to 5 n.m (44 lb in). As for cranking the engine after the Distributor was removed, make sure to replace it as required. Mount the Distributor rotor onto the Distributor housing proceed to mount the Distributor housing onto the Cylinder Head and align the marks made during the earlier steps and mount the two Distributor flange bolts loosely. Then, install the new Distributor Cap seal on the Distributor Cap and fasten the cap with two screws and join the Distributor electrical connector. Lastly, adjust the ignition timing of 1.0l engine as needed.
