C5AF distributor question
My C5AF-E distributor stopped advancing and it appears its likely due to surface rust on the mechanism (and maybe a bit of other crap too). I have removed the top half of the advance mechanism, but the bottom half seems stuck (although I haven't really pried much - don't want to until I get a response to this question). Will it come out on its own, or does the distributor shaft half to come out first?
Here's a pic of the piece I'm talking about that I need to remove for proper cleaning:
Oh, right now the top half of the advance mech is soaking in PB Blaster before I wire brush them. I wire brushed it a bit after spraying it and letting it sit overnight and it didn't come off easily, so I put it back into soak. Any other techniques for removing surface rust?
Thanks!
