Different distributor?

[denty225]

As my ht leads were corroded solid in the dizzy cap I ordered new leads and cap. The cap dont fit. All the ones I have looked at since are the same as the one I recieved, so why is mine different?
New one on the right:

Not happy cos I was hoping to get the car running today.

Isnt the new one on the left?

Have you tried a different rotor arm or is it the screw holes?

I have a spare one if you struggling

cap on the left is what i have on mine, got it from gsf
the cap should of come with a matched rotor arm in the box

[denty225]

Well spotted! new one is on the left :roll:  New arm dont fit, old one is 12mm inside diameter and new one is 10!

[fordy]

i know my rotor arm was tight to fit but a firm press got it on fine  :?

maybe you've been giving the wrong bits

Deffo says GT Turbo on packaging. I'll ahve another look tomorrow. I soo wanna get her going.

[fordy]

I wouldn't try and force it too much, that little spring loaded carbon piece in the centre of the cap snaps really easily.

The old one secures on with 2 clips, whereas all thee others I've seen and the new cap have 2 holes in.
Bought a distributor and cap off Dean so back to that at hte weekend. Gonna have a go at the exhaust today, and the dash, and maybe the rad!

Deffo not going to press on!
Old:

New:

The new one looks like the correct rotor. I've never seen the other shape before

I've got a new cap and arm in my glovebox, i'll measure the ID on mine.

[denty225]

Bob from DCB reckons that I have the wrong distributor on. Not ot worry, will be put right shortly.

On its way

Cap and rotor look new !!

[fordy]

[Ash-Lee]

The ID on my rotor is 10mm.
