Fitting a distributor today, it was a makayo one and it came with a rubber cap over one of the heads on the distributorcap (a blank one with some metal in it from what I could tell, it's not meant to attach a lead there because it's not one of the numbered ones), possibly some sort of vent?
fiddling about with it, they put the screws in with cement or something because I couldn't get into it for over an hour to check which way the arm inside was facing for fitment, been hot and humid today I've lost my temper with it about 4 times
Finally got it into the car now, stopped for tea, just looked, at some point the p*ssing rubber cap has disappeared and I've looked everywhere
Do I need it? is it gonna let moisture in and fail sooner without it?
