Hi, I don't have original distributor and have stock 1.8/with single carb. Am in the middle of going through the whole car and replacing parts. Am looking for a good choice for a distributor for not to much money. Have read the svda 034 is a good choice for a general purpose dizzy? Looking on eBay at "hot spark" brand but not to many reviews. Any thoughts would be appreciated thanks.

Do you know what distributor is currently installed? If by any luck you've got a stock 1.8 dist, that's the best one for carbs IMHO.
The Pertronix distributor only work well with the Pertronix Ignitor, and don't do well converted back to points. You want to make sure you get the correct coil for the Ignitor you are getting, you've got to match the ohms |

I imagine there's a L-jet dist somewhere in the greater Puyallup area. I know of a couple near canyon road.

I just put a Pertronix distributor and coil on my dual Weber 2.0 and found it easy to install and the car runs fine. 160.00 for both on Amazon.

Are you replacing the single carb?
For the distributor, run the part number for it. It might be a decent or acceptable unit that only needs cleaning and some internal part replacements instead of swapping out the entire assembly. |

If I don't have to drive to Puyallup I'd be happy to just give you my Bosch 009. But I don't recommend it.

Not at the moment but have all the injection system will instal it after I finish about a million other things on the car. I know the carb set up I have sucks but it works. |
