Distributor pins rotating
#1
Hi All

Slowly building up the miles in the Brookfields but thought I’d better check the points plugs head torque etc.

I found this inside the dizzy.  A fine spray of brass.  Culprit is a rotated pin in the cap.  It moves easily with a pair of pliers.  DS4 distributor caps are not that easy to come by but I’ve ordered a Renault/ Simca one that a previous thread here says will fit.

In the mean time anyone got any ideas of how to prevent the pin from rotating?  I don’t want to throw away an otherwise good cap!

Cheers

Howard
