Is there a factory spec / parts sheet for refurbishing a OE distributor?
For instance an exploded diagram showing # of fiber or slider washers ect? Springs? Wear tolerance? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

The rebuild process is documented in the factory repair manual, parts (shims and fiber washers) are available through most VW parts suppliers. Biggest problem with original distributor is the vacuum cans are not available. I switched to a 123, the issues are gone and I can tune my setup. Good for you but if I was going to deviate from OG & drop more than 5 bills in the process I go distributor-less. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) As for the Vacuum cans Ive still got a collection. Thats one reason I opt to service them vs just tossing them. Ill admit after all these years Ive never bought a set of factory manuals. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
