With the poor quality of those photos and no information as to what kind of car or engine you have, I think we may have some problems identifying your distributor, too. _________________ "I spud therefore I yam." |

Pull it out and take a look at the numbers written on the side of it. Most likely the dreaded 009 as mentioned, but there are a couple of variants, an 050 and some other number as well, IIRC. |

Ding, ding , ding.. .we have a winner.
At a second look the cap has ears for the cap clips... it's a 050. _________________ Glenn

Someone send a medic to check on Glenn, I think the snow piled to the roof is getting to him.  _________________ "Most people don't know what they're doing, and a lot of them are really good at it." - George Carlin |
