My 1835cc CMC has a Brazilian 050 distributor with the rotor set 90* left of where the common #1 plug wire would normally be (4 o'clock) Its seems it is set at 7 o'clock. Being that this was to the best of my knowledge a running fine tuned machine prior to it going to sleep in the early 90's --15,000 miles on the clock. What I have read is there are dizzy's that use a 90* offset to the normal position. The pic shows that the hammered dent (TDC) is at the case split and plug wires were routed to fire from the 7 o'clock position.
I noticed that the new points I put in had a bluing on them 5 minutes after running the car. So instead of ordering a new coil, points, rotor etc I made a decision. The car has not yet hit the road--getting down to the last few items.
Being that I wanted to upgrade the dizzy and rid myself of adjusting points I opted for a Magna Spark Kit.
Wondering if I just install the new dizzy right out of the box with the installed blue spring setup?
What are some do's and don'ts?
