    Distributor Bracket

    Hey,

    Is there a bracket between the distributor and the engine block? There are 3 threaded holes in the block where the distributor fits into the engine block, but I don't seem to have the bracket (or hardware).

    Can someone post a pic? Would anyone have a spare bracket?

    Cheers

    Do you mean theses three holes around where the distributor drops into place?


    If so there is a triangular shaped alloy plate that the distributor clamp bolts onto and the distributor can then be rotated to adjust the ignition timing.


    Cheers, Mick.

    I pulled my dizzy off the other day, not realising it had that triangular base, and it had the paper gasket (by 'paper', it was a normal gasket). I put it straight back on so I don't know if it had both.

    The paper one does the job Billy.
    I am not certain but I think the alloy one may be for the diesel engine.

    I have a different plate?

    I am having some issues with the plate I have. I have one with a dome underneath?. Not the plate seen in the picture. As my plate is damaged I have located another one ( same as the picture) but now my distributor will not fit? The distributor is too long it seems?

    Wrong distributor or wrong bracket? Any suggestions?..

    Cheers wazza
