Schorcher Dizzy instalation HELP

Post by stafkel »

Been trying to install a new dizzy (Schorcher)I can not get it to sit flush on to the block it will not drop straight in and there is a 5mm cap between the dizzy and block. The oil pump slot is not an issue as the oil pump as been removed, I tried moving the dizzy a tooth at a time but still no luck I can't even get the old dizzy back in same drama, any help will be much appricated.

totally frustrated

is the gap larger than that if not then it is OK

I would refit the oil pump before fitting the dizzy that way you can tell if it is in properly

Thanks Craig
the gap is about the same, the car is running fine starts a lot quicker/easier with the electronic dizzy
