Specifications:
I bought this Distributor for my 1979 Ford 400. Truck had a bad points eliminator distributor on it and this fixed it. Is the coil that is in the cap replaceable? I am still getting a misfire in the engine and will be troubleshooting it soon.
Part Number: 555-40029 DOES THIS HAVE A 1.41 STEEL DRIVE GEAR ?
