I've got a stock 2.0L distributor that is in need of rebuilding/refurbishing. I've looked through the vendor forum and didn't see anyone offering this service. Can anyone recommend someone to do this job?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Try to re-bush yours before exchanging. Or, get a good used one. The "rebuilt" distributors I've bought have had all these problems:

- you'll get a different one in exchange that you'll need to dismantle and modify to move the vac can and condensor to fit on your car

- different advance curve such that you can't set timing to factory specs

- mickey moused trigger pts

- stripped screw holes

the good thing is that using the pertronix seems to eliminate bushing wear
