Listers,
A friend has an 100 LeMans with a Mallory dual point dizzy (I don't have
the model #). Had some issues with it recently; condenser failed and
the gaps don't look right. Not knowing what other issues there might
be, I sent Jeff Schlemmer at Advance Distributors an email to see if he
refurbishes them. I was a bit surprised at his reply:
"A typical Mallory rebuild runs $200-250 plus tune-up parts and will
only hold its advance curve for about 1 driving season. You're better
off investing in an original distributor for a lower cost rebuild and a
longer lasting product."
I was a bit surprised to see that on this dizzy, there is a felt pad
between the cam and each follower. Would think that the relatively
"soft" felt might affect the gap over time.
Thoughts? Experiences?
Cheers,
Bob Haskell
