    Yes -71, it was recently rebuilt and I take for granted that they had the bushing replaced, however I`ll give them a call to have it confirmed.
    Maybe I should consider an electronic ignition after all
    I recommend a MSD Ready-to-Run distributor. There are no external boxes, it is as reliable as dirt and worth every penny.

    Oh, and FYI... the way to produce the degree symbol on your keyboard is to hold down the [Alt] key and type 0186 on your numeric keypad. The result looks like this:  36º

    I think the 0186 is the ASCII code for that character, or something like that. My manager at work showed me that trick. He even knows the ones for copyright, trademark, and others that I don't care enough to memorize.... He's a little looney with details.  :22yikes:

    Happy to help, Rusty/SE.  :biggrin:

    Make sure you have the [Num Lock] function activated on your laptop before you try the alt-number trick.
