Rotor and Dist change-now problems
Ok! I swapped out the dist cap and rotor. After swapping I started and digital dask is freeking out, I hear a grinding noise in dash. I shut down immediately. What is this. Can I fix tonight?

Re: Rotor and Dist change-now problems (aroulette)
When you swap distributor caps, It is easy to get the two single leads, I believe they are brown wire and white wire reversed....I think!
At least I believe that's how my 88 works...but then I could be confusing it with one of my older Z 28's
Anyway, be sure you have the wire leads to the cap in the right place.
Oh yeah, another thing...you probably changed the coil in the cap too!
Did you get the solid metal connector back in correctly?
Just some crazy ideas

OK guys! I think I got it fixed. I took the coil cap off and retightened. I actually turned the screws about 2-3 times and dash is ok. Thanks
