water proofing the distributor V8

(1/3) > >>

beast5680:
Has any one got any suggestions/pics of how to stop the dizzy getting splashed, i think i need it after she died the weekend when it got covered in water, happily the trusty can of wd40 seemed to solve it quite quickly and we were back in the mud playing again after about 10 mins

Jake:
There are some special 9 fingered rubber gloves avalible for the distributor and 3 fingered glove for the coil. Cant remember where though? My biggest problem is the spark leads connecting to the spark plugs. Remedy - longer rubber caps on the spark plug ends! Avalible from all leading manafactor's (cheese) :)

Paul:
I use an old 1 gallon plastic container with the top cut off
and placed over the dizzy, Also done the same to the coil.

beast5680:
do you find thats ok paul i presume it just stops the water splashing on the dizzy and the coil and thats enough to keep them dry etc

Paul:
Yep,

Well so far I've been lucky, It's drop a cylinder or two but
it's never stopped running... Better than it was before..
