Alright, I'm rebuilding my distributor and found a few "not available from dealers" parts that I need to finish it. I need (at least) 1 weight and 1 spring, but would like both of each. Also need the input capacitor, inner cap if it's in almost new condition and the cap inspection plug.
In addition to the distributor parts, I need an exhaust valve (L and F head engines use the same valve).
Yes & no on the same exhaust valve. Depends on who rebuilt the engine the last time. Your exhaust valves may be solid type or rotator tip types. _________________ Wes K

I used the parts out of the distributor in my "parts Jeep". I wanted to keep the Jeep as complete as possible so that it would sell as a fairly complete Jeep instead of parting it out. Oh well - went ahead and pulled the brake light switch off of it too. _________________ Matt
