	Yeah, I agree, and suggested that he look more closely at the
distributor.

	This is the one that had the weird mech-adv. return.  He picked up
a couple of spares at the Bug-o-Rama on Sunday, put one in in Nevada, and
was on his way.

	I've been encouraging Kevin to not look first to the f.i. system
as the #1 suspect for poor running -- always have to ensure that the
ignition is good for starters.  I know that this was my first biggest
mistake with a d-jet car.

	Oh, and of course we lubed the dizzy cam when we put in the new
points when he was at my place on Wednesday. :)
