Default Re: measure gap between rotor and plug posts in distributor cap
This may help. Make the gap 0.015" to 0.025" by gently /carefully bending the brass tab on the rotor. The rotor's tab should pass by the middle of the contact in the distributor body. If the tab becomes loose or the rotor breaks, get a new one.
