The notch in my distributor would allow the Plate Lever to travel 38 degrees. Too much. Using some 180 grit sandpaper i roughed up the area at the edges of the notch in the distributor then used JB Weld to built the edges of the notch to get it to the 20 degrees listed in the Service Manual. Problem solved. ken
