Default How does my distributor look?

I have an EM1 and recently it has been running a bit sluggish. Doesn't really have much power and poor gas mileage. I'm thinking it might be my distributor?

yeah the rotor looks like it would still work but does look a lil worn.. the tips on the inside of cap look good though so u should be ight on that end... if it doesnt work, oh well ur out like 5 bucks and have the better mind of knowing you have a new rotor

go check your spark plug color. Mine used to be black (Rich), changed the rotor and cap and they are now tan (Good). Your plugs are a very nice indicator of how well your engine is burning, go check them.
