Dear Friends,
Please see my attached photo. It shows the distributor on my Tr3a with rotor arm and points set for TDC on cylinder 1.
I am puzzled why the distributor body is turned at an angle where by the vacuum unit is not parallel to the engine block. All the photos of distributors I have seen for the Tr3a including the ones in my workshop books are parallel.
Additionally, the car won't fire up when I have the distributor in this position even when I can plainly see the rotor is touching the distributor cap terminal for no.1 cylinder.
Any advice and comments very very welcome! Please help throw some light on this one!
