EI Dizzy wobble while driving


Recommended Posts

I have an L20b with an EI dizzy swap off of a Napsz20e motor and the distributor is wobbling while running/driving. So much so that I believe it is starting to rattle while I drive making a fairly loud noise. I do not know if all of the distributors are held down by only 1 bolt but mine is and I do not know how to tighten it any more so it will stop moving around so much. Has anyone dealt with said issue? Should I be looking for another dizzy swap with a different pedestal?

Is the shaft bent? Clamp it in a vise (gently) and put an indicater on it. I took a dist out of a wreck once and it would only run on 2 cyls. The shaft was bent just enoigh to not open the points on the other two.

Mike the dizzy is lose/wobbling from the adjustment plate up. The pedestal is in there solidly but it almost seems like the dizzy isnt fitting tight in the pedestal. Its hard for me to explain...going to try and take the dizzy off and see whats up.
