we ran into a problem last night while converting my 88lx to carb.we got everything done and went pretty smooth until we went to drop in the distributor.we could not get it to seat,then we noticed the shaft wasnt centered so then we kept playing around with it to get it centered and still no luck.so we figure maybe the distributor just wont work.tried to put the factory one in and still no luck,and if anything it was worse than the new one.odd thing is nothing else happed besides the old one being pulled out.but it seems to me the shaft has come out of where it drives the pump and is not fully seat and i cant get it to seat either and when we tried pulling the shaft out it starts comin up and then feels as if it gets hung up and drops back down.im kinda lost as to what to do here and really dont want to pull the motor on this thing.
