Have a feeling I did not install a spring between the Distrib, and the Distrib Pinion gear/drive. Do not see it in the Raby video, but its in the factory parts schematic. I am running an 050 (i think, its not an 009) mech. adv. distrib. Do I need to put the spring in?

You probably don't want to hear this but now that you are getting good at removing the dist. Go get a good single vaccum and mechanical advance one (SVDA single vaccum dual advance) and make your motor a lot happier. You will be able to tell the difference when you take off.

Charlie....you are more than correct. ,it,s the right thing to do. I just fell out making any more comments on this thread, when some of the guys , thought it would be ok to have the distributor installed 180 out of phase, and an 009 would work properly also. |
