I have had a problem with distributors that keep melting... The 2 wires that go into the unit have a melt down after a few months and so does the coil inside the distributor.... this is the second dizzy and looks like i will be fitting another one to get it up and running but want to cure this before i do! So enlighten me! ...and who has parts for these distributors anyway, appart from scortcher..(who are very expensive)!!!

If it's a stock ignition system, it looks like you may have a faulty igniter..
