distributor
 

Got a quick question gang is the rotor on the distributor cap supposed to spin smoothly n not rough,I just remembered when I was fixing the mechanics mistakes to my camaro i remembered when I was turning the rotor it was not smooth.

I have another one brand new in a box in my closet n the rotor spins nice n smooth,can a not smooth rotor cause bad hesitating at high rpm?

Re: distributor
 

"Not smooth" means bad bearing. If it's worn bad enough, could cause the rotor to wobble.

Re: distributor
 

Yes to that man, n yea it felt wobbly too,can that cause problems at high rpms

Re: distributor
 

Sure... the faster the rotor spins, the more it's going to vibrate if it isn't perfectly balanced. Did you loc-tite the rotor screws before installing? they have a habit of coming loose and falling out.

Actually Fred a mechanic did the distributor cap Idk wat he did,the hesitating all started 3-4 months after he worked on it last year,n I been chasing this too long.

I have another distributor brand new in box,I'm a lil nervous taking the screws and loctiting them,but I'm assuming that's assuming n heard that's important.

Thank you for responding
