I picked up a complete '75 B20 electronic distributor for my '68 144. The distributor was turning tighter then I thought. I took it apart and cleaned the shaft and all is well now. The shaft was gummed a bit. Turns great now.

Can anyone tell me how this '75 dizzy shaft gets oiled? The end of the shaft under the cap has a screw in there with no felt. I can't see how engine oil would go up the shaft. My current distributor has a oil point where the felt is. I can't see how oil would get down to the shaft if I did put oil in there. It appears the top part of the shaft comes off if you take that screw out. I was going to take that off to have a closer look.

If you lube it and put together and not service until you take it apart again. What kind of oil or grease do you use.

Sorry, I thought I was posting in the 140-160. Had the wrong tab selected.
