Not sure I understand you here, Bill. Is the dizzy locked up or the vacuum
advance ?

Should be possible to remove an advance regardless of it's condition. BTW,
AFAIK the vacuum units mechanically interchange between the DM2P and 25D,
except for the vacuum fitting. There are different amounts of vacuum
advance, but your engine will run with them.

I might have a core in the parts bin ... don't think any of them are good.

Ask you local NAPA or independent parts house if they can send it out to be
rebuilt. Mine can, ISTR I paid around $35 or $40.
