Drive gone bad - 11/04/07 08:33 PM
I was going down the road today, found a nice stretch of smooth road and opened up the throttle. All of a sudden a loud backfire and no more go, uh oh. Once home and doing some checking pulled the dist cap and turned the rotor by hand, oh crap what happened. It was the roll pin, sheared right off. What causes such things? Cheap parts, defective material? 1 question though, are these ordinary pins or a hardend type?
Oh yea more info always helps. :p Chevy 250 mostly stock HEI dist bought new from napa about 6 yrs back, 2bbl rochester 2GC, 200-4R, 4:11s,
Hope your day was better than mine.
