I ask about Dist. because I bought a new Mopar piece and it worked for a few weeks, after some "sprints" It seemed inconsistant...sometimes would not start, sometimes would, then, in it's final gasp at age..5 months or so old, it wouldn't fire and I had to get towed home, very weak spark.

I stuck in the original 38 year old piece and it fire right up, strong spark, strong idle.



I have bought 2 brand new MP dist and both of the pickups inside were bad, I replaced them with used pickups and all is good. I also experienced that with a 3rd MP dist that was a friends. When you ohm them they checked out different than a stock pickup, beware.
