Distributer Gear Pin
My 78 F250 broke down on me over the weekend while moving. It really sucked because this had been the 3rd time this had happened to me over the past 3 years.
The roll pin holding the distributer gear in place sheared off.
I have a 400 motor which is pretty much stock (except for headers and mild cam)
Anyone else run across this problem or any ideas what is causing this to happen?
About 3 years ago I rebuilt the motor after this happened the 1st time. I thought the oil pump may have siezed. It had about 80K miles on a rebuilt and I was unsure if there was any engine damage.
Please help!!
Thanks,
Mark S.
