Since I'd never lubed the right angle drive, I started there. When I pulled the casting off the distributor, I noted that the end of the casting, with the gears visible, didn't have any sort of covering to protect it. You can see the gears just sort of hanging out in the grime, facing the fire wall....

Dead 330 tachometer

As my most recent post indicates, happily, I got my Webers going pretty well. During this exercise, I connected my old Sears dwell/amp/tach to the right-side coil.

Started on the Webers over the weekend and everything was looking good..'till I got to the last Weber and I couldn't get the RPMs down and I couldn't adjust the airflow from it's position off the synchrometer's chart.
