Looks like my replacement worked just fine, been driving it around for a couple of days with no issues. Not exactly sure what it could have been. I'll just have to keep checking it periodically for any signs of wear.

Thanks for the advice, I'll be heading over to the shop tomorrow to drop off the replacement and I'll see if I can get a look at it or see if they've already done that themselves. When I have more info I'll update, hopefully with good news.

Howdy all, I have my 88 GL in the shop getting its engine resealed. I got an update from them an apparently the distributor rotor had melted in the distributor, or potentially tore it somehow? It wasn't melted/torn at the head, but at the base of the rotor head. Luckily it turns out I have an extra, however would anyone know why something like this would have happened? It was an older part, and I don't when it was last replaced, so it could be that it was just on the way out anyways. I hadn't had any issues with anything ignition or engine electrical before. I'm a bit worried that they're going to put the replacement in and the same thing might happen, it not immediately, maybe a few 100 miles down the freeway. Attached are some photos of the damage the shop sent to me. Any wisdom would be appreciated. Thank you! -Philly

First post! Here are some pics of my 88' GL. I call her Constance. I have just about a million photos of her, but these are some of my favorites. Everything is stock except the exhaust which custom made by the last owner, nothing loud just not stock. Not exactly sure why it was done but it's not an issue, so I don't mind. Also, the rims were painted black which I'm a huge fan of. -Philly
