Default Re: Cam / distributor gear back lash?

When you time it , don’t change direction. That way there’s no slop in the gears, as that’s the natural tension of the motor turning. Crankshaft turns CW and distributor turns CCW.
That being said, you have some serious wear. Probably in the cam/distributor gears.
