This will be the second distributor I put in the past 6 years. What do you guys think is going on. The car doesn't get driven much, for about 4 years it was getting an overhaul, like a full top end Trickflow kit- heads cam intake and all the rest of the goodies. The last time I put a Summit street stip distributer in, now the roll pin through the gear got sheard off. It looks like it tried to walk out about a 1/8 of an inch. Also when I try to spin it it binds up. Feels like the bushings got messed up. I'm tring to figure out the cause. Appriciate any help or ideas.


THANKS

Apparently my ex-husband made that mistake.

Get a factory remanufactured one. The Summit one is probably cheap Chinese.
