Ford Distributor Gear Removal Diagram - Press & Splitter Plate Setup (B4139-A)

This is a single-page line-art illustration from a Ford service manual, uploaded as 'Distributor Gear Removal.jpg' to a 1990 Ford Bronco gallery. The drawing shows a distributor shaft positioned in a press: the distributor drive gear rests on a bearing/gear splitter plate (a two-piece knife-edge puller plate held together with threaded studs and hex nuts), while the threaded end of the distributor shaft points upward toward a press ram shown descending from the top of the image. The setup depicts how the shaft is pressed downward out of the gear, with the splitter plate supporting the underside of the gear so it can be removed without damage. The only text on the page is the Ford illustration reference number 'B4139-A' at the lower right. There are no torque specifications, part numbers (other than the figure code), captions, or year/model applicability statements visible on the page. A reader can learn the correct tooling arrangement, gear supported on a splitter plate, shaft pressed through from above, for removing a distributor drive gear from its shaft using an arbor press.
