Burning up distributor caps Posted by 85spgwt [Email] (#669) [Profile/Gallery] (more from 85spgwt) on Thu, 28 May 2020 00:17:24 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Hello all! M88 Saab 900T w/o vac advance. Latest issue is that I have went through 2 Bosch distributor caps in two weeks where the center post (where it contacts with the rotor) has burned/melted slam off. First time I have ever had this problem in the many Saabs have owned since early 80's. Would the timing being too advanced or retarded cause this condition? Anyone have additional thoughts on the cause of this problem? Note that it has new wires & plugs and all resistance tests are within the parameters in the Bentley manual.
