Rotor Question

Ray Morley · 10-21-2006

70 Kadett Rallye 1.9

I installed a new rotor (BOSCH 04 033) and I fits nice and snug on the spindle. When I start the car the engine runs 'okay' but the distibutor cap has a noticable vibration. When I removed the cap you could see the red dust residure from the rotor.

I then installed my original rotor and everything works fine.

Both rotors look the same but the BOSCH one does seem to have a thicker base.

Any ideas on what the problem is?

Thanks, Ray

The Bosch has clips to hold the distributor cap, while by the Delco Remy the distributor cap is held down by 2 screws
