Distributor Diagram ?
I can move the distributor shaft up and down about 3/16 , and it disengages from the slot at the bottom when the motor turns over. Cant find a diagram to see if there are any shims that should be on the shaft that would hold it down . Does someone have a diagram?

Re: Distributor Diagram ?
A fiber washer goes on top. Any steel washers you may need go on the bottom.

Re: Distributor Diagram ?
Would that be on top of the joint between the shafts?

What I do when rebuilding a distributor is place one steel washer at the top of the shaft and one fiber washer at the bottom of the shaft. If there is end play due to casting wear I add one or more steel washers at the bottom just above the distributor shaft sleeve. Quite often I find that the shaft will bind with just the two washers installed when a new shaft collar is installed. What I do is grind some material off the top of the collar until there is a nice snug fit with no binding and no end play. Tom Endy |

Re: Distributor Diagram ?
I do the same as Tom just mentioned, except with a new shaft and collar I find there is not enough room for the lower fiber washer. Things fit fine without it for me. I've used a rivet for the collar, and I've also used a roll pin. The roll pin is easier to install and makes it easier for future work.

Re: Distributor Diagram ?
Seems like it should engage a little deeper into the intermediate oil pump shaft.

Re: Distributor Diagram ?
I bought a new shaft also because it looked as though the sleeve pin was modified so I wondered what else.

Re: Distributor Diagram ?
The rotor and distributor cap should hold the shaft down.
