I think this may have been going bad for awhile and finally just quit. The car is running better than it was for sure. Feels a lot more aggressive and pulls better. Also, the little stumble while just cruising and then suddenly giving it gas is gone. Is this possible? I thought MSD ignitions are working or not working, no in between.
I also used a product called "deoxit 5" on all the contacts on the rotor, inside the cap terminals, MSD pigtail connections. I even put (4) 1/4" holes 90 deg apart in the cap for ionization. Now to get that broken water temp gauge out!

i don't really care what everyone does...really, but just think about what MSD recommends,......drilling holes in a cap. to prevent ozone from corroding the contacts..........i guess its the special something with MSD.
why does my duraspark distributor not need the holes? (with the small cap)
using the MSD box. i get a couple years out of a cap.
you are going back to model T days, if you drive in a humid area you will have to wipe the inside of your dizzy cap because you will be on the side of the road.
i know some will make excuses on why this is ok with them, MSD is the almighty and all......i think their caps are junk, their ford distributors are too tall, they look like monstrosities.
ok, i'm done.....just think about it...
