well, i still have my old dist. with the startor that I replaced in it....i'll try swapping that out and see how that goes since I know it's a "motorsport" part and I plan on replacing the tfi module just because i don't know whetehr this one has been replaced or not...i've had it tested and it was fine but no telling how it is when it's warm. As far as teh clutch thing, I would reach for it so I could possibly coast in neutral since I was driving when it was stall....nothing with unloading the drivetrain except being able to coast all the road if need be.
