Re: Distributor replacement

I've got one from my 85 2.8 sitting around, no cap or rotor though(sold those), it has some rust on the spinning part with the arms(I don't know the name of this part) but it seemed to run things just fine when it was in my car, given the condition I would be happy to take $10 for it and get rid of it and see someone get some use out of it...I don't like throwing away hard to come by parts that aren't broken, lol...but I don't like them taking up all of what little space I have either...
Send me a PM if interested.
