I can't remember if it's all together or not ? I need to finish it though !
I've been away for health , divided interest , and business reasons , so I suck
Will try to complete this project by 2031 if possible lol

Apologies for the lame update... but better than no pics.

I've taken my Blue z around the block a few times , and love the weather !
It sounds a lot faster than it really is .... lol.

Anyways pulled out a spare EI distributor that I had laying around.
It needs the top bushing replaced along with cleaned/inspected/greased up.
E12-80 module.
I'll put this on my L24 while enjoying the weather , and roll with it in between doing the L28et stuff....

Strange that an upper bushing would wear out with no side load like a points distributor.
