BB427, I had a distributor that went bad. Everything was good cold, but as soon as the reluctor got hot it didn't sart or idle well.

Fixit, I got to try the old keep cranking thing when I replaced the dist and it backfired up through the carb. I had one hand cranking the starter and the other rotating the dist to get it timed close enough to start. It was a long few seconds.
