Default Re: Distributor Drive

No harm meant but the distributor drive gear is usually worn to the point of causing excessive back lash in the distributor . I mostly replace the drive gear whether I'm doing a rebuild of the engine or not . Besides the standard size , two oversize distributor drive gears and parts are offered for engines with more wear at the cam connection . Replacing the gear would probably be the easiest and best fix .
