Re: Minnesota Daily Driver

Well in the last few days the truck began missing at idle, most noticeably in drive. I had initially replaced the cap, rotor, & coil when I 1st got the '78. I decided that since it has been 5 years or so since that was done to replace the cap, rotor, coil, pick-up ring, control module, and condensor.

Tonight when I pulled off the cap I found that the "button" between the coil and rotor was broken and the boss around it was worn away. I also noticed that the advance weight pivots are worn as well as the return springs and that the rotor didn't "snap back" after turning it. So it's definatly time for a refresh.
