I would be worried of interference, things spin inside there.

4tru tru that is why i haven't started the car yet. probably gona push it out of the garage since it's only half in.....

no one has it except the dealer for $4.

hahahah yeah i know but that cap broke on me on a friday and i could get the new part till monday which is today. i really wanted to drive the car that friday.
its funny i always wondered why my car sometimes i had power sometimes it was slugish. after opening the distributor cap i found out why. and that cover thing it just broke in my hands. probably that dis cap hasn't been changed in a long time.
