| Subject: | Distributor cap and rotor |
I just replaced the caps and rotors on my 2200, and decided to have
some fun with the old parts. I bored 3/4" holes into one cap between
the four spark plug wire terminals, and hogged out as much material
as I could and still retain the strength of the cap. I then installed
the cap and wires and fired up the engine. Using my digital camera, I
got one shot out of the seven I took which showed the spark jumping
the gap from the rotor to one of the segments...no big deal, just for
my amusement.
