Here's what I did. I took some of the extra ground wire from my DSS system and took off a half inch tube of insulation. I then cut that down the side so I could slip it around the pin. Then I took the soldering gun and carefully fused it closed and to the plastic of the connector. Then, and I hesitate to admit this, I used rubberbands to hold the connector snug next to the distributor. I know this won't last so I'll make sure to keep plenty of rubberbands in my box of miscellaneous stuff until I replace the distributor. Now that's a rig job, huh? Dave, what's this JB Weld stuff?
