Charley,
You could be right. I was paraphrasing a Moss Motors Spring 2000
bulletin comparing Crane's and Pertronix's benefits and drawbacks. I have
no personal knowledge of the Pertronix. I do know that in other cars where
EI Hall effect is OE, bad bushings are often the reason for selling
remanufactured distributors. Also, those cores that I've seen have had more
than a "little wobble".
