[TR] Question about shimming the distributor pedistal on a TR4A

[Dave Connitt]

Hi,
I am having trouble locating shims to adjust the end play in my distributor
drive. I read in the manual that I am supposed to stack a known thickness
spacer under the drive and measure the total clearance off the block and then
install the appropriate shim thickness to get to the nominal value. Not too
hard, but nobody sells the shims that I am aware of. Actually, I can't
remember removing any when I took it apart.
So, do it just buy some shim stock and make my own?
Thanks,
Dave Connitt
