REFLECTOR: Engine failure

[Al Gietzen]

Dave;

 

The real question is "Why did the gear strip off?"  Since there should be
only very light load on the shaft, that gear should run forever.  Is it a
reluctor pickup?  Did the rotor gear teeth on the MSD maybe not match up
exactly with the drive gear.  Does the shaft still rotate freely, no chance
of interference at the pickups.

 

Very strange indeed.
