Distributor Differences - Part 1
Gene sent me a '75 distributor without the vacuum advance to use in place of my trashed one.
I went through the usual step of orienting the slot in the oil pump gear at 4:30 to arrive at the correct #1 firing position for the distributor when installed.
When it seated, it was way off where it should have been. When I looked closer at the distributor, there are a couple of differences that I'm thinking may have an impact on its operation.
First, I notice that the slot in the shaft is in a different location relative to the shaft lobe than on my old one. You can see my original in the first photo. The slot is directly in line with the lobe. In the second picture you can see that the slot is well in advance of the lobe. What's up with that?
