I have some running issues that I thought might have been caused by this issue, but after substituting an original distributor with points it appears that is not the case because it made no difference. Without some remedial repair I can imagine the wear in the disc is likely to get worse and eventually may lead to the pin coming out.
Ah ok, if you called him he would know if its supposed to have that much
movement in or not?
