I have a MSD Pro Billet 85551 distributor. The cap, pickup assembly and the reluctor have heavy corrosion. The unit is about 10-12 years old. Over last few years the cap would have green corrosion I would clean the contacts or replace the cap. Now it has solid corrosion. Has anyone encountered this and what was your end result. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Attached are some pics.

Thanks,

Wow, that's really bad. I'd just replace the entire guts of it at this point. No way I'd trust those pieces again.

I have a MSD Probillit too and mine has done the same thing. The sad part is it's only got less than 500 miles on it. It has been garaged since I had a stroke 11 years ago. It looks just like yours. I've rebuilt it, and hope to be firing the motor up maybe tomorrow.
