You have to take the distributor out to remove the trigger contacts, but once 
they are out, they are easy to clean.

DON'T file them. Just slide a clean piece of paper in between them and pull it 
thru the contacts. Push the contact open with your finger before you come to 
the end of the paper, or you risk pulling off some paper fibers which can get 
caught in the contacts.

While everythings open, it's a good idea to clean off BOTH cams and put a thin 
smear of grease on each of them.

It's good that you found this. I hope it fixes your problem. A little dirt in 
the contacts is one of those things that just happens every once in awhile.
