[Mgs] Triumph but sorta MGB Related

[David Ambrose]

I'd also suspect that the distributor cap center contact isn't making a 
good connection. The carbon tip is spring loaded, so you can pull the 
contact out to stretch the spring, then reinstall the cap. If the car 
starts running, that was your problem, and you'll need to find a new cap 
soon.

Cheers,
Dave Ambrose
