4 bolts?? You should have 3 bolts if you are speaking of the distributor. Should be 1/2 wrench size. Note when you remove your distributor that the key on the back is off set so make sure you get that lined up correctly on the re-install. It will be a great help to get a couple 5/16-18 X 1-1/4 or 1-1/2 long bolts and cut the heads off into a stud, thread them into the top two holes and use them to slide the distributor on, then you can rest the distributor on them, use your thumb (or thumbs) on each side to reach in and turn your rotor while gently putting pressure on the distributor against the engine, rotate the rotor until you feel the keyway drop in. Once you feel it drop in, keep pressure against the distributor with one hand and use the other to install the third bolt, then remove one stuns and install the second bolt. Then you can remove the other hand and easily install the third bolt!!! Good luck!!
