need an opinion on this
« on: January 18, 2011, 05:37:36 pm »
Well my 81 k5 blazer died on my yesterday and i found out is has no spark. checked for 12 volt to dist, checked ohm readings on the pick up from what I have read is if you check resistance between both terminals on the pick up the reading should be between 500-750 ohms which it is and if you measure from one terminal to ground it should be infinit which it doesnt have its jumps all over the place so my pick up is bad. now a new pick up is around 60 bucks and you have to remove the distributor to replace it. So I found this on ebay need a second opinion is this to good to be true there are tons of these distributors out there and with 3 year warrenty :o and adjustable vacume advance. Now this is going on a mud truck / toy what do you guys think?
