my distributor rotor is loose you can shake back and forth and just has a lot of play in it is it supppose to be like this or is it suppose to be tight. still trying to fix my missing problem someone please help me.

 

anyone

 

please

 

it shouldn't haev any play in it. It should be tightly screwed on.

 

Are u talking about the rotor with the two notches that go into the intake cam?? That rotor should move side to side a little, if you look at the intake cam where the dizzy goes the slot is offset to one side and so is the rotor. There shouldn't be any other play anywere in the distributor.

 

im talking about the rotor when u take the distributor cap off the rotor that u see under the cap hooked on to the rest of the ditributor

Not a problem.. hope it solves your problem

 

Some ting like that would cause all kinds of problems. And that screw is always on really tight, it actully feels like the screw is stripped in my car but it's not. good luck
