It's most likely that the distributor just isn't installed all the way down. I've 
fixed DIY cars where this had happened, but that usually brings them to a 
stop.

Does your rotor really turn freely all the way around, or are you just spinning 
it a little bit and noticing the normal free rotation that a properly lubricated 
mechanical advance gives?
