Well, my dad's truck finally left hime stranded. He was able to get it gonig enough to limp it home. I get a new distributor it needed and put it in. The thing is it is not running right still. It idles really high and you feel the whole truck vibrating when in gear.
The new distributor did not have the extra plug on the side of it. It only had the one that goes to the cap. As far as I understood from what I have researched on here, that is ok. Or is it?? I don't know what brand or anything it is. I got it from my cousin who got it new for his, but did not use it for the reason it did not have that extra connection which his truck did like my dad's.
This is on an '83 w/ completely stock 305. Any ideas??
Let me know if you need any extra info.
Thanx in advance.
