Will appreciate advice from the community regarding a person/business that provides the service of restoring/refurbishing stock 2.0L Distributors?
Specifically, for Fuel Injection application setup. Thanks in advance. Tom |

Great. Thank you Jett.
Redmond is not too far from me here in Snohomish. Anyone in particular at Redmonad European that I should ask for? BTW: Did their contact do a great job restoring your 914 Distributor? Thanks, Tom |

Do either of these rebuilders replace weight springs too?

I'll check with "Houston" regarding the Weight Springs and if they check and if they can replace correctly.
What other items/actions do you consider are important with a good, reliable Distributor restoration? Thanks, Tom |

Since you ask, can the vacuum canister be tested and repaired too?
