<DIV>I have a ‘56 TR3 with a 40798B Lucas distributor installed. It has
been in the car for the last 35 years and has worked fine. I’m cleaning up
the engine while the body is out for paint, mostly detailing and fixing
leaks. It was rebuilt some time ago but has very low miles on it since the
rebuild. Anyway, I had the distributor apart to clean it up and found that
the vacuum unit isn’t working. I went to the big three to find a vacuum
unit and my distributor isn’t listed. In fact, I can’t find a reference
for this distributor at all except that moss lists a cam to fit it under their
TR3 section. None of the vacuum units available are made to this
distributor. Can anyone give me an idea of where this distributor is
used? It obviously can be used in a TR3, but what is the difference from
the ones listed in the parts books? Finally, does anyone know of a place
to find a vacuum unit for this distributor? Any and old help is greatly
appreciated.</DIV>
