Just happen to have two new, still in the box, Lucas dizzy caps for the 'A' ... same as on the 18G/18GA/18GB... set the ohm meter to Rx1K ... and was able, after a little wiggling of the probes, to

Thanks Larry, The best I could do was 21K at the same junction. As you suggest a new cap fixed me right up. Unfortunately the old one won't serve as a spare. It's only future is as a desk top pencil

Ross, your distributor ought to finction quite happily with an open circuit (as measured by an ohmmeter), so 20Kohms does not neccessarily imply it is bad. When I worked for Lucas (!) they allowed 4

If you have one of the original style caps in which the connections are made by screwing a pointed screw into the high voltage wires, make sure the pointed screw is really getting to the center of th

Don't do this! The early MGB distributor caps are inherently unsafe when pressed into pencil-holder service. Since the holes are perpendicular to the axis of rotation, the gravitational pull is in en

Todd, your treatise on the use of Lucas side-entry caps as pencil holders assumes that the unit will be employed in a static position on a horizontal surface. I believe the unit could be employed suc

Don't sweat it Todd. The only Japanese manufactured item I REALLY like is their mechanical pencils. The early MG caps are a perfect fit for the .5 mm Pentel pencils I'm partial to if the pencil is i

.......snip..... Thanks Simon, The cap WAS the problem. It was convicted on circumstancial evidence and summarily executed yesterday. As a point of interest the resitance on the new cap at the same
