Post subject: | 25D Vs 45D Distributor |
Hi, My A series 1275cc has a 25D distibutor with the vacuum blocked off due to the twin carbs. I think my dissy is playing up and i am thinking of replacing it, is it worth sourcing a non-vac distributor or is it okay to block off the vac on a new unit. P.S. Is there any difference between a 25D & 45D distributor? Thanks Roc |

Non-vac 45Ds (actually called 43Ds) were used on Minis 1975-1978. Plenty about and they are a good robust dizzy. Even better if you toss the points and fit an electronic module (Pertronix etc) in them. ![]() I used one for years in my modified 1310S. |

Depending on the type of carb there's no reason to forego a vac advance because you have twins. And without it you're throwing away $$$. Cheers, Ian |

Kochie ![]() I run a Pulsar in the 1360 and another in the 1412 stroker. Yes they work well, but even better if you get the advance curve modified. |

do you have to take it somewhere special to get the advance curve modified |

![]() Reduce the centrifugal advance slot lengths to give about 10° max. See my how-to at top of mods forum. ![]() |
