Overhaul your dizzy

tell you what, if you run an EA dizzy with a vacuum canister it may be a good idea to service it. I must have pulled four apart today. Well, actually picking up where i stopped, and according to receipt for M4 cup hex ' bolts' i bought for the job - i started this 17 Sept 2010 !

The platd the module sits on that shifts with vac advance (& boost retard if you have one) has an upper set and lower set of ball bearings so things move easily for vac can.

The underside set is spring steel and has captive elongated cups that look to be moisture traps causing rust to form on balls and retainer

a tiny wire spring clip on underside allows it all to come apart for cleaning and regreasing and boy if you can get some rust free components in there sure makes a difference and shojld allow vac can to work without additional resistance.

i used a Nulon brand grease with ptfe and claim it does not fly off rotational assemblies

no pictures ..hands too grubby

no report on how it runs any better yet
