Yepedipep!
My rebuild by a oh so reputable outfit (Fast German Auto) included studs for
the cover plate right next to the distributor, on top of pulley. That's the
good part, since other items, like the cover plate for the left(driver)
coolant passage at flywheel side, and bunch of bolts and stuff I gave them
with the longblock were not included. Hm.
Anyhow: those bolts they used were too long and kept the distributor from
seating all the way (the vacuum diaphragm housing was in the way), hence the
drive was not all the way in, the rotor would spin whenever it felt like it,
and off course my hall sender would not get any trigger either. Had to grind
off those bolts, (EASY with sparks flying and the fuel line 1/4" away from
the grinder. Poo!
She runs now, just bled the cooling system, and will install new clutch
master cyl sometime next week. All kosher, it seems. Pretty stoked after
all.
Oh, and the Bentley DOES have plenty of testing procedures for the hall
unit, know them all now.
Thanks a bunch for everybody's help and time.
Cheers
