Review on 🚗 A-Team Performance HEI Complete Distributor 65K Coil for AMC Jeep Straight 6 232 3.8L & 258 4.2L - One-Wire Installation, Black Cap by Doug Ellingson

There are two problems with using this distributor with a Jeep 4.2 or AMC 258 Straight 6: First, it has a hardened steel distributor gear - if you have a factory cam it will eat the gear on the cam. You'll have to use a factory bush gear or buy an aftermarket bronze gear and keep an eye on it. Secondly, the mechanical feed provides TOO BIG overall feed and you will rip apart the ring-shaped tracks with sparks. You need to adjust the limit screw and reduce the total mechanical feed by about 8 degrees. Finally, I'm only giving 3 stars because the ignition module wires don't stay in the connector when you push the connector into the cover. , so you don't have a startup in this case.
