Volvo distributor tab?

[jonathaninsc]

I'm going to look at this boat later today. In the ad the guy states:

4 cyl Volvo Penta inboard needs
repair to screw tab on distributor
housing

Does one of you knowledgeable folk know exactly what he's talking about? I believe the motor is an AQ131.

Re: Volvo distributor tab?

Call him and ask what's broken. It could be the tab for the cap hold down, or it could be what he call a tab, but is actually the hold down for the distributor. Before you waste your time going to look at it, ask if you will be able to run it. If it can't be run, walk away.
