Carl,
If you are having trouble with your distributor, any part of it, you can send
it to Advanced Distributors and Jeff will rebuild it better than new for around
100 $. He will replace any worn part and install a new vacuum unit if
required.
I had him do my distributor on my 72 TR6 and it came back better than new and
he micro polishes the body to a mirror shine,
After my 6 is done I am going to be shipping both my 3 and 4 distributors to
him. He comes very highly recommended!
