RE: [DML] FUEL DISTRIBUTOR



Your experience is what I have told people for years about fuel distributors
and WUR. If you do take them apart and was fortunate to put it back together
and it didn't leak, then you would still have problems if you don't put all
the parts in the same holes they came out of. Pressure test and flow are
crucial in a proper operating distributor. We have rebuilt in stock.
