I have a HEI distributor that has been installed for almost a year now with no issues. Lately, my motor has been missing a little and I can see the tachometer jump up every few seconds. When I really take off, I can really feel it surging/missing. Has anyone else run into this on a HEI distributor?

JD

any idea of which dist. it is?? there are some junks out there. it could very well be carb (fuel) related, or a bad plug(s) or wire(s). what all have you done to it recently (if anything)?? You can also try disconnecting the tach wire and see if it goes away.
