Finally got it out of the shop after a long, long wait for a Mallory distributer cap and rotor. The old one fried somehow. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Great to drive it again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

that's what I do! Group: Members Posts: 20,065 Joined: 27-December 02 From: Port Hope, Ontario Member No.: 26 Region Association: Canada |
I fixed my cap with the same issue by cutting a brass replacement ran it for 4 years no issue, but replaced the cap last tune-up. I kept the old cap just in case.
If it's a unilight it will have a module, if not it will have one or two sets of points. Just by the cap it's a red top which is the same body, etc as a unilight. Older Mallory red tops are not drilled to self oil and have a manual oil point on the dizzy body, it looks like a ball bearing, you push it in with a pin oilier and add a couple drops of oil every so often. |
