nikgurn Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 So my tach has started jumping around pretty bad, and from time to time the car will fall on its face when I start rolling. I would be inclined to think it is the distributor giving me issues, but of course if I open the hood to see if it is the culprit the jumping goes away and I can't put my hand on it to check for vibrations (I swear I am going to catch it one of these mornings.) From what I read on the forum it could be the alternator or coil as well? How do I go about checking before I start buying? oh and if it is the disty, how do I get it out and a new one in with out screwing the timing over? (I am sure it is probably in the forums somewhere, I just didn't find it...)Thanks in advance guys- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikgurn Posted June 7, 2010 Author Share Posted June 7, 2010 Okay, from poking around the forum I think I have confirmed my suspicions... Now how do I switch it out without screwing the timing? Any suggestions, oh and does anyone have a spare sitting around? Thanks- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikgurn Posted June 9, 2010 Author Share Posted June 9, 2010 Update: New one is in. Thanks Travis at Car Quest of Logan for a deal on the new disty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
