Hi, I want to upgrade my ignition systen but my vaccum advance is pooched. Does anyone have a good distributor for a 1983 320i for sale?

Thanks
Mark

I've got one with new cap and rotor. I'll be back in town around July first. If you still want it, $80 and it's yours. Looks pretty too! If you want pics, I'll try and get em to ya

You don't have one for the earlier 2.0, do ya? I don't remember you having one, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

I've got a distributor with new cap and rotor as well if you need it. I'll be reasonable with the price, if you need it after all.

Has to be the 2.0 one, not the 1.8 one.

I thought they were the same? guess I was wrong.

Yeah they are different. The early ones spun clockwise and had a smaller rotor contact used with points. Most of the early ones had a condenser on the side as well for the points.
