Distributor

I think all the erratic problems I've been having are due to poor ignition. There is a small hair line crack near one of the mounting screws on my distributor cap. And the adjusting screw just spins without tightening or loosening. I can move the distributor by hand with a little bit of force.

(Merv's 1971 V12 E-Type) I took a photograph of Merv's V12 E-Type's distributor in an effort to align mine identically. Not sure if the correct adjustment on his car would be the same for mine (does timing work like that?).

It seems to have stopped back firing now but its still not very smooth.
