So, I picked up a new distributor, cardoen # 30-4694 and I cannot get it to go in.
The old one comes out and goes right back in just fine. The new one seems to be just a hair to wide to fit. It stops right above the gear where the housing tries to go into the block. I can press it in that far and the shaft rotates freely but the housing is obviously stuck in the opening.
Is it just the wrong part maybe, or is the shaft hitting the oil pump or what?
Its driving me nuts that the old one slips right in no problems. Everything is lined up as far as I can see, even if its not it should go in but not be timed...
