The hall effect sensor inside the distributor is not a common failure, I have only ever removed 1 when converting a distributor from remote TFI to on-board, and that required complete disassembly of the distributor. The TFI module is the only sensor part that can easily be removed but it requires a 5/32 thin wall 1/4 deep socket.
