distributor rebuild

Hello,

i 'm planning to repair my ignition distributor 2.7l).
I have seen that ************.com sell parts for the rebuilding.
What's your experience with this company?
I have too readed a lot of values for the radial and axial play?
Could you say me wich play is acceptable for the distributor?
Thank you for your answer.

I highly recommend them, they helped me rebuild my dizzy.

Vertical play should be no more than 0.5MM ( up and down )

You must have no radial play and it is normal to have some drag as you spin the shaft.

Get the bronze bearing washer and appropriate amount of shims and two fiber washers.

What about oil?

I understand you should occasionally oil the dizzy...what kind of oil, how often and where?

Motor oil. Some people prefer 3-in-1 oil. On the felt pad under the rotor. With every oil change.

Hard to beat ParstKlassik! Kurt and Sarah are very helpful and easy to work with. Kurt loves what he does and it shows. Sarah is customer service personified.
