Distributor rebuild.
Hey guys I got 1985 Chevy small block and get lack of power on it.Tested my distributor today and it's basically not passing any tests I mean everything on it defective including probably ignition module too ,I can't test it with ohm meater according to rep.manual. so I ordered parts as on pics to replace them and make it work better, I ordered everything except VACUUM ADVANCE which is does not work after some testing So I just wondering, is it worth spending almost 200$ rebuild distributor when I not gonna rebuild vacuum sustem. The hoses on vac.system replaced but all valves are old and probably don't work real good. The rest of the part's on ignition sustem brand new or work just fine.

REMEMBER Salvage Yards.... There is a dozen of the distributors at the salvage yards here in Hill Country Salvage marble falls tx. Many salvage yards will pull the part and ship it for 80 bucks about that for that part. As for the vacuum advance and pcv valve and check valves throw some wd40 on em and then blow them out with a soft air compressor
Dont Forget your DIalectric grease on the Module or you will be where you are again....
I m going back out to fish my distributor torque bolt out of the crack in my intake manifold ... it went down the hole ......

You can get a new distributor for much less than $200 including the parts that you have listed including the vacuum advance. That would have been the way to go. Check Rockauto.com and other parts sellers online.
