Rebuilding a distributor
I am trying to collect information on rebuilding a distributor (non-vacuum advance) for my 71 911e. I am considering distributor wobble as a source of my high rpm miss detailed in prior posts under "CD Ignition Woes."
I have searched the archives and have found bits and pieces of info, alot of it from Warren (Early S Man). Warren recommended bushings from an industrial supply place. Has anyone done this? What am I asking for? What are they made out of? Do I need to bring in the old ones, or are there specs I need to give them? The old ones would probably be out of spec. What parts get lubricated with distributor grease? How hard is this? Is there any easy way to judge how much play my distributor shaft has (Warren says it should be less than .001 ")? Any other steps in this process I should know about? Is there a step by step similar to the Pelican tech articles?
Thanks,
Scott
