I have noticed this problem also.....   I had to do these modifications
to get a pertronics to work in my friends bus........

there is a new module out that is being sold for use in 009s ...... it is
about half the size of the original..... -- the 009s had a problem with
clearance of the rotor and the module..... I have compared the larger
pertronics and the smaller 009 version... and I see no reason why the
smaller version could not be used in other distributors......
