Distributor shaft
cmalc - 14/2/07 at 12:50 PM

Hello

Help, I am stuck.

I am building an Indy. I have been advised by a main ford dealer to contact you guys about my probelm.

During my build I broke the plastic distributor shaft on the front of the engine with the hoist (grrr) anyway I contacted fords for the part but the leadtime is months which means my car is stood idle...I need a distributor shaft for the 1.8cvh, can anyone advise where I can get one (already tried the local scrappies and the onese on the interweb). Has anyone got one going spare?

Cheers
Malc

You should find one on hear as most don't fit the 1.8cvh motor (but I am!)...

How are you doing the engine mounts, any pics?

I got them done. Modified the pinto ones from MK which cam with the kit. But... since then i have fitted a Westfield exhaust manifold which clashes with the mount so now I am currently making one to fit, hopefully by the end of week work permitting.

Have you tried Burton? Link

They might have them in stock, if so they will get it out within a couple of days. Best to give them a call as their site might not list it in an obvious place.

Distributor shaft?

Do you mean rotor arm? If so you can probably get one from a motor factor

give h+h ignition solutions a ring, very helpful and will sort you out better than ford ever could

Sorry i dont have the part you need but try linking your request to the wanted section just in case someone else has one and doesnt always read the MK section.
