YOU DEFINITELY NEED A DWELL/TACH METER AND A TIMING GUN---PLAIN JANE IS PREFERRED (NO DIALS OR BUTTONS ON THE LIGHT, A TRIGGER IS FINE, THE OTHER CRAP WILL ONLY CONFUSE YOU...AND ME TOO!)
A PAWN SHOP MIGHT BE THE PLACE TO LOOK FOR USED ONES REALLY CHEAP, AS THEY ARE BECOMING LESS AND LESS IN DEMAND.....I MAY BE ABLE TO HELP YOU GET STUFF AT A LOWER COST, IF YOU DESIRE NEW
I HAVE MADE PICS IN THE PAST AND CAN EXPLAIN THE TIMING PROCEDURE TO YOU....IT IS EZ, IF YOU GO THRU THE STEPS RIGHT
WHAT SORTA CONCERNS ME IS THE SHAVINGS YOU FOUND---IS SOMETHING RUBBING IN THE DIST?
CAN YOU SEND GOOD PICS?
WITH THE ROTOR BUTTON REMOVED CAN YOU WOBBLE/WOLLER THE DIST SHAFT AROUND (SHOULD NOT WOBBLE AT ALL)......WHAT ABOUT CRANKING IT OVER, DOES THE SHAFT WOBBLE INSTEAD OF RUNNING TRUE?
IF IT IS NOT LOOKING GOOD, I CAN TALK YOU THRU REPLACING MR. DISTRIBUTOR THE EZ WAY......AS LONG AS YOU DO NOT PULL IT OUT IN HASTE, AND DON'T WAIT ON ME.......THEN WE'LL HAVE TO DO IT THE HARD(ER) WAY
I CAN ALSO EXPLAIN HOW TO GET YOUR PARTS CHEAPER...PARTS...OIL CHANGE...TOOLS.........IF YOU ARE INTERESTED
PIC
1) WAS AVAILABLE AT HARBOR FREIGHT FOR LESS THAN $40--THIS ONE BELONGS TO MY BUDDY, THE STUFF WORKS WELL AND IS COMPACT, I WILL GET ONE LIKE IT ONE DAY FOR A "HOUSE CALL KIT"
2) MY FAVORITE DWELL/TACH/VOLTMETER...METER (I HAVE 2 OTHER REALLY OLD MONSTERS)
3) PLAIN JANE, NO BELLS OR WHISTLES TIMING LIGHT (I HAVE ANOTHER ONE JUST LIKE IT THAT STAYS IN "WILLY" (MY '46 WILLYS)---I ALSO HAVE 2 ANCIENT ONES THAT LOOK LIKE A FLASHLIGHT WITH WIRES OUT OF THE BACK
4) VACUUM GAGE/FUEL PRESSURE GAUGE (SAME GAUGE)/ COMPRESSION GAUGE KIT (ALSO OLD AS THE HILLS) THIS IS A REALLY HELPFUL SET, ESPECIALLY THE VACUUM GAUGE --- I PRETTY MUCH STARTED OUT WITH NOTHING.....AND I STILL HAVE MOST OF IT LEFT!

5) "MR. JEEP"
6)-7) "WILLY"
TELL ME SOME STUFF!I HAVE A WIFEY TOO.......I KEEP HER WONDERING ABOUT THE PERCENTAGES OF HOW MY "LOVE" IS DIVIDED BETWEEN HER AND THE JEEPS.......IT IS SORTA TWO AGAINST ONE!
NICE LOOKING JEEP---WE MAY HAVE TO DISCUSS CORRECTING THE IMPROPERLY INSTALLED WIPER.....OR IT'S POSSIBLE MESSED UP LINKAGE INSIDE THE WINDSHIELD FRAME
TOO MUCH SHADOW---I LIGHTENED IT AND CROPPED IT!
