| What are signs of distributor going bad? |

| Is it possible for a distributor to be bad sometimes? I am having intermittent problems with my car and the only thing I havent checked is my distributor. It is the original distributor and I converted it to pertronix thinking it would help, but it's not. The car backfires through the exhaust when I let off of the gas. It does it with full exhaust and with open headers. Sometimes it will backfire through the carb or stumble when I nail it from a light. From a roll it is fine 99% of the time. It is a 390 with new edelbrock 600 cfm carb and performer manifold with headers and pertronix pointless ignition with accel coil. Everything else is stock. The plugs are new, the wires and cap are new also. The timing is at 6 BTDC and I even tried 10 degrees. Any suggestions are welcome...Thanks. |
