Yes it's those triggers in the lower distributor. I realise they send the "message" for timing and duration of the injectors to fire. I think that's my problem. With the almost starting condition the troubleshooting guides have all started with these beasts. I'm not sure, but I'm guessing the lobes may be worn. The "points" themselves look OK, the wiring is intact but not the best looking. I don't have points in the top of the distributor, I have a 6 point contacter wheel, I think it's sometimes called a "chopper wheel". I guess my question is still the same, has anyone replaced these triggers and where did they get the new ones. If I'm "barking up the wrong tree" I'd also appreciate any advice....thanks.
