Thanks Greg,

I talked to Josh at MG Classics this morning. He is sending me a couple of each. Apparently this is a problem because the supply of these is drying up and they don't make them anymore. I will definitely use Loctite. I normally do, but I didn't do the asembly on these. Thanks again.

Same happened to me two weeks ago up in the mountains. A six-inch piece
of duct tape cured it. MI has new clips, and Mark E. prolly does, too.
The screws are available used only. I'd try Mark E.

Use loctite on the new screws.

Hi Everyone,

I took a little jaunt up the east shore of Lake Michigan this afternoon
and about 70 miles from home the Eldo coughed, puked and died. It seems
that the screws and spring clips that hold the distibutor cap on had
taken flight somewhere on the road. With the help of a short length of
baling wire procured from a helpful convenience store clerk I made it
home without further problems. Now, does anyone have those clips and
screws I could buy, beg, borrow or steal? It doesn't even show them in
my parts book. Also, is this fairly common and if so, is there a secret
to keeping them in place, such as Locktite. Thanks in advance for your
help.
