Was the junk yard distributor any good, same plug and year? Not sure the part number is but why not just exchange distributors, they aren't that hard to replace although I'd recommend the bentley to help with installation and you'll need a timing light. My chrysler with the same round plug and wire lead had a nice short in the plugs lead. I'd have it bucking like crazy if I didn't get the wire to sit just right. Thats why I switch distributors even though I had found a decent top/hall sender thing to it on a junker.
I've seen some rebuilt for just over a $100 that are tempting. Wondering if anyone has ever had a "Snap" brand rebuild and whether or not they are any good.
