I could imagine, that with the back in time production all parts were =
matched to a block?

Betreff: Re: [Fot] Too much clearance on distributor drive gear
=20
Thanks for all of the responses. I=E2=80=99ve used this distributor in =
another block, and this is the first time in the =E2=80=9Cnew=E2=80=9D =
block. In the old block I had the correct clearance without shims so I =
think you are all correct in that I need a new bushing in the =
=E2=80=9Cnew=E2=80=9D block. The bushing didn=E2=80=99t look obviously =
worn but I guess looks are deceiving!

Thanks again, FOT is great!

Hi - if the bushing is worn, it needs to be replaced. I would not run =
the gear with a thin shim under it, the shim will not last. I just =
looked at Moss and they have that distributor bushing listed for $75 =
plus or minus.

If you have slop with that distributor drive, you will never get the =
ignition timing to be rock solid.

Has anybody else had this experience? And what did you do about it.
