Every three weeks I'm replacing a distrubutor because the gear at the bottom of it snapped any idea why?

Is the distributor hard to turn when you take it back out?

Pull the pan clean it out and install a new PUMP.Also better check the CAM GEAR. That just might be TOAST ALSO!!

I doubt it'd break that fast if it were a cast dizzy gear. Has to be something else that's putting strain on the gear itself. What kind of distributors are you putting in it?
