I put out a list MayDay a year ago when suddenly, upon starting, the car ran absolutely brutal. Undriveable. Adjusted the timing, replaced the fuel pump & fuel filter, drained the fuel. Nada. Barely

The distributor is gear driven. If it it is jumping so bad you have to move wires, it must be jumping teeth. It is crucial that the distributor gear matches your cam.. cast iron vs. steel I think it

This sounds right to me. Everything is mechanical for timing so something; either the timing chain or the distributor is jumping teeth. If it was the timing chain you wouldn't get it back with moving

The first thing that comes to my "alleged" mind is the possibility that the gear at the bottom of your distributor has sheared the 1/8th inch pin and the gear is turning slightly on the shaft. When y

You would do yourself a BIG favor to replace your dual points with an electronic system. They are far superior to the points (even dual points). Some have revlimiters (Pertronics III) MSD now makes a

Gary, If you have access to or can borrow another distributor from someone, I would suggest swapping distributors (including rotor, condenser and cap) to try and isolate the problem to the distributo

I'm going to ditto the sentiment that something is loose or cracked because each time you touch the distributor, you "cure" the problem. My suggestions are the cracked cap that someone else already m

Starting at the top: The cap. I doubt the cap is rotating since you state that the timing is off. A rotating cap would produce rotor misalignment, but not alter the timing. The points plate. I assume

One other thing to make sure of, is to be sure that when the #1 cyl is at TDC that the timing marks also show TDC. The dampers can rotate giving you a real headache, when trying to time an engine. I
