Thanks If I ever caught one of my distributors playing, I'd send it back until it learned to get serious. Sure, shimming may help, but putting 'em on time out is probably better in the long run.

KISS_Racing Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Had one that kept jumping off the work bench and tried to make it out to the street to play with the neighborhood kids. Had to put a short leash on it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwmbishop Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Had to put a short leash on it.... Especially with all them Ford's out there. Bad influences abound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KISS_Racing Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Mr Bishop, You know Im not partial, heck I even leased a Benz for a year. But those Ford distributors after being mated to a 6AL do get wirey(with my best Irish accent)! Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
