MSD 6AL missing

If your center button is worn you need a new cap. Use this one now to make the hole in it. Mark the terminal with white paint ant make a vertical white line on the rotor too where the rotor terminal is.
I did bend the rotor center spring upwards to make real pressure on the central button in the cap. Centrifugal force tend to push it away and down.
I got myself the cap with the holes drilled in it to prevent ionization and rust inside the cap.

Wow, that's some hole.

The MSD articles suggests drilling into the top of the cap. Is there any special reason why you went into the side?

If you drill a hole on top with all the spark plug cables you see nothing.

On the side you can mark the rotator with white paint where the tip is and you see exactly when the spark jumps.
