Hi, Any one have or found a replacement for the plastic bushing that locates the point plate to the Housing? I contacted Accel and they just said"SORRY" no parts!. I am sure a custom could be made in a shop-------but was wondering if anyone had parts or a substitute bushing. thanks 265glide
Those 34100 series distributors were Accel's "economy" line. As you found out cheaply made. They were for an oem replacment I would pick up a Accel 30100 vintage dual point. They were the good 10k rpm street/race rated and all the replacement parts (cap, points, rotor, cam gears etc are still available) I see them on ebay and the swaps pretty cheap $20-30. They were made 35 years ago but are still a great distributor and I still see many guys running them All torrington & roller bearings design. They have a special design , you can take them apart without messing with the springs inside etc to regrease the bearings etc. The whole assembly comes out in one peice leaving the housing with the bearings.
