Distributor.

The non vacuum advance distributor in my 71 MKIV had a wrong spring installed.

Does any one have/know where to get the proper springs for one of these distributors?

Thanks

Uh, never mind

Got my answer, one of them is supposed to be loose, I thought someone was trying to change the advance curve.

something about a little knowledge and danger. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/rolleyes.gif
