A while ago I suspected a dizzy problem and sent it off to Jeff at Advanced Distributor at the recommendation of this forum. After some minor set-backs (broken Lucas dist. cap and too short wires) with Jeff's help my BJ8 now goes like a "bat out of heck". Smooth as silk. The intermittent hesitation I've had forever is gone! The acceleration is much improved. Turns out I had a slightly bent dizzy shaft with a little side movement. It came back so clean it didn't look like mine. With the new advance springs the timing needed to be advanced a bit to get max power. Once the sweet spot was found (with Jeff's help)she purrs with power. Best money I've spent on the car in years. I highly recommend Advanced Distributor and Jeff is a great, patient guy.

ausmhly, i know they did a good job on his dizzy but how could it shoot sparks into his rear view mirror?????? :jester:
 
I've had Jeff do distributors for me as well. He always does great work.

Made the tractor motor in my mum's Spitfire almost feel like it was really doing something!
