544 tune up ----in need of distributor 444-544

Abe,
What are the last three digits of the serial no?

A good one for the B18 is the centrifugal advance Bosch 003 dizzy, would have come on B18Bs from 1800s up to '67 or so. I'm guessing you might have the 009, also from an 1800.

Really, just about any B18/B20 dizzy will work. If it's vac retard just leave it off.

you could take your chances on any eBay Bosch JUFR, get one for around $40; or go to the parts store and order a rebuilt dizzy from a 1974 140 series. That should yield you a 007 mechanical advance unit, second only in my opinion to the B20'd 240 dizzy from '75. Either or those will run you around $125.
