pulled the dist.cap off.All four contact points inside the cap were being hit by the rotor cap.When I checked the rotor I found that the contact tip was 45 degrees from its correct straight ahead position !! A piece of the bakelite rotor next to the contact tip was broken off.I am amazed the little tractor would run at all.I examined my old rotor and cap and could find no interference issues at all, so I assume there is not a distr. shaft wobble issue.The cap seems fine as far as cracking, etc.I am going to clean the contacts on old distr. and rotor , put it back on the tractor and see what happens. All the new parts were Napa Echlin.I have the box for the cap and it shows FA350. I don't have the rotor box.You guys seem to swear by the Napa parts so I guess one of these parts got in the wrong box , or they had a bad production run .
