Ok, so i'm slowly in the process of getting my Mighty Boy into a reliable running state, got the parts to do a much needed tune up, and discovered that the distributor cap and rotor are nothing like I have.

The existing cap has a Mitsubishi logo on it with the part number T30771 on the inside.

Anyone have any idea where I can get a replacement cap as the Bosch GD681 just is not going to fit.



PS. If anyone in Canberra/Queanbeyan has a F8B for sale let me know :)

Cozza,

Here's hoping. I'm at the point of finding another distributor. No-one if spoken to has been able to help.

I'm still running an F5A. The existing cap is larger all round, the clip points are about 10mm higher while the internal dimensions are several mm wider.

Early G10a cap is GD527 - I'll try to remember to have a look at one I have in the morning.
So many delays to getting my MB back in order with 993cc & 5 speed transaxle... neighbor issue gone, donor shell up on rotisserie, new sheds on the way.... another project also..
