Hello everyone,
It has been a while since I posted my carburetor problems. Not it's all good thanks.
I had another problem recently with a bad point for the distributor.
This problem gave the car a very bad running, misfiring like crazy.
Anyway I tried to adjust the point but it was quite worn out.
Finally after 15km, it actually completly broke and melted.
Here the photo of it.
I wanted to change to an electronic one but they are quite expensive.
I actually found a point replacement for only 7$. Original specs.
Car is running good now but I'm not quite sure I want to drive it, knowing it could melt or break at any moments on the road.
Should I just buy the electronic one ?
Or this one melted becasue it was too old anyway and if i got a new one It would be fine for a while ?
When I see how a point is working in the distributor, a piece of plastic touching a rotative metal cam at high speed...
I'm thinking It doesn't seem like a very good idea to begin with to be honest.
Thanks for your feedbacks !
