Need a vacuum advance unit for a stepdown distributor

TwinH

Swapping components from my old 308 to my rebuilt one and the vacuum advance canister is leaking.
Anybody know a source for these? Auto-Lite 1AT 4009B 10H distributor.

They can be reconditioned. Interesting how they pull them apart, replace the diaphram and reassemble them. Google will give you an address of who does it. Or if you are lucky you might find one of these NOS items thats 50 years old. Nothing wrong with a 50 or in my case a 60 year old. Previous threads have talked about using a Mopar distributor body with the Hudson distrib parts in it, in the stepdown motors. I wonder if this means points, caps, rota and vacuum advances are easier to find. Good luck, Barry

Lots of Mopar advances will fit right on, but have different amounts of advance.
