You should be able to reach the bolt with a swivel socket or a small wrench. You don't need any special tools. As for direction, i'm pretty sure counterclockwise is the correct way but here's how to tell. Turn the distributor, if your rpm's drop, you retarded the timimg, if they climb you advanced your timing. From what I've heard though, the computer will adjust over time unless you reset it or disconnect something before you go turning the distributor, but I'm not sure on that and I'll leave it for someone that knows a little more about it.
