Distributor Inspection

DrWatson · Nov 8, 2011

When looking at a Land Rover points distributor, what determines a worn out distributor? What should I be looking for? Is it the movement of the cam-on the shaft?

Are they repairable or should a new one be purchased if the old one is worn? :alien:

excessive movet on shaft ,it will give erratic and poor points openning,poor advance plate ,weights etc, there cheep new so no point and spares hard to get

Lateral movement is a bit of a giveaway. If in doubt, replace. They aren't expensive.
