Default Re: short in distributor keeps reappearing - any ideas?

If you are using the stock setup, check your ammeter. It acts as a fuse and can cause lots of problems if it is marginal. Next time it happens, wrap a small wire around the nuts that hold the junction box cover on and try to start the car. If it starts, the problem is not in the distributor.
