I've got 3 Chrysler motors, only one presently running but all are good potential runners sitting in the line up waiting their turn, each needing various this and that. They are 70, 75 and 85hp 3cyl. and 2 of those have points type distributors, both of those distributors have busted rotor buttons. Anyone know of a cheap source for rotor buttons? I searched ebay, googled, checked the online parts places I know of including iboats and searched this great forum. Conclusion, its not looking good. Its not looking like these are available anymore. Also called Franz but he wasn't answering........ Now wondering if I do find them that they may be $$$.....Or???? Should I use that money instead to invest in upgrading (if you want to call it that, I dont know, thats why I'm asking) to electronic ignition (breakerless)? And if I do upgrade to breakerless is there a particular model that is the most reliable...?
I'm going out this morning to begin my breakerless education, haven't messed with them much yet. Busted my last brittle old rotor button yesterday so going to pull the one breakerless distributor off of that motor and put it on my one present running motor to see if she'll work...
