Distributor advance weight lubrication

Unread post by Ulver2002 »

I have a series 2 Fulvia. Should the distributor advance weights be lubricated (with grease or ?), or is it best to keep them dry?

i see nobody has replied to your question. i lubricate mine. i see no reason not to. i either use a small amount of silicone grease or dry moly spray. just be careful not to foul the points, (if you still have points installed)

Good idea to slightly grease the weights

In the base plate is a small hole with olio written next to it. Olio is Italion for oil. Put a few drops there too. Most likely no one put any oil there for the last fifty years.
