I just received my rebuilt XR700 solid state ignition from Crane today and
would like to install it on my 76 TR6. The problem seems to be that neither
of the 2 6 cylinder shutters fit onto the shaft of the distributor. The
problem is that there is not enough room under the rotor. The 6 flat portion
of the shaft comes up too close for the shutter to fit. Is the 6 flat
portion of the shaft removable? Would appreciate any help available.
BTW, I just finished installing a pair of Weber DGV 32/36 carbs on the car
and I didn't have to make any adjustments to the idle level or the mixture
settings! Surely there must be something wrong here. I do notice that I
get a hesitation when going from idle to moderate or higher acceleration but
I assume that a minor CCW adjustment(richer) will correct that. Would also
appreciate comments.
Thanks,
Bob in Riverside CA
