John,
If the distributor body popped out of the clamp around at the top of the  
dist. pedestal, the clamp is probably tweaked from a previous over  
tightening. If so replace or fix the clamp.  Keep downwards pressure on the  
dist. 
whilst tightening. So much for our bay area good weather!
 
  TR Regards,
Hardy

I  thought I had the engine sorted out, but no ...

The distributor drive popped out at speed last week -  exciting  to stop 
dead
on HW 101 north of San Francisco.

I now  discover that it was never properly seated. The Drive slot is 
correctMany  thanks

John
