[Healeys] Mallory dist

[John Sims]

When I installed my Pertronix, I had to retime the engine to get it to work
smoothly as Alan suggested. Simple procedure but it was necessary for me and
now the engine hums.

John -

Did you put the plastic rotor on the dist. cam?

Also, check your timing, I notice sometimes these kits put timing off
by as much as 30 deg, so you need to re-time the ignition, that should
fix it.
