Routine maintenance
As my vehicle is approaching 90k I thought I would check the distributor cap and rotor for condition and wear. I have no documentation which would indicate that these have ever been serviced so as part of my routine maintenance an inspection was in order. Both the cap and the rotor were showing extensive internal wear and corrosion. Both, in my opinion required replacing rather than just cleaning. Maybe if you have a 70 series around this mileage and you are unsure about the condition of these parts, it would be worth checking. I understand the ultimate symptom is failure to start particularly when the engine is hot. I have images of the old parts but not sure how to upload them for you, sorry.
