Re: Distributor shaft vertical play?
Paul, I gotta try first, it's both a curse and a blessing! The brass bushing (washer) above the drive dog was worn, increasing vertical play, which inturn compounded side-slop. I replaced it with a thicker (new/unworn) brass one, which removed most of both vertical and lateral play. I'll report back on whether or not the car still runs...
