Re: Checking the condition of my distributor
With the Breakerless SE system there is NO touching to effect switching. The 'triggering' is done across a healthy air gap via Hall Effect. A set of vanes are mounted to the bottom side of the overhead centrifugal advance via the rotor mounting screws.
The vanes pass through a rather wide 'slot' in the trigger module that mounts to the breaker plate in lieu of conventional points. The system is HIGHLY tolerant of distributor shaft wobble... That's one of its design attributes.
