I was going to give my 3000 a tune-up today....i took of the distributor cap and rotor but couldn't remove the dust cover(flat thing under the rotor with an o-ring sealing out all of the bad things)....after messing with it for quite a while.....a screwdriver accidently went through it.....i called FNH to get a replacement and they said they don't carry that part anymore. they carry the whole dist assembly, the cap, the tune up kit.....everything but the dust cover. anybody run into the same problem....or might have an alternate source for the part....i will prob just run without..... thanks for all replies.

Tisco part will fit all three cyl with original distributor. I've sold a few and they seem to be made of a tougher plastic than the orginals. The distibutor still available from NH is a Mallory for a six cyl with three of the towers blocked off. My expirience with Mallorys through my time with the Oliver/White dealer is keep your original if you can.

Tisco just started making the 3 cylinder dust cover last year, let me know if your local dealer can't find it.

If you have the original distributor then that is correct. FNH switched to a different company to supply replacement distributors. The replacements have a cap with 6 wire positions but 3 of them are blanks. Ford/Motorcraft did not manufacture the dist for 3 cyl tractors. Yes they still get the original cap and rotor, and points, condensers, but they do not have a supplier for the dust cap. On the positive side you do not require the dustcap on that distributor to keep the position of the dist cap correct as you do on 4 cyl distributors. So if need be you can run without it. Wish I could be of more help but I do not know of any company selling that dust cap.

Jim, Any TISCO dealer should have them or can get them # FAA-12239-A, about $6.25 w/gasket. Hope this helps. Dave.

Sorry, I'am reading 3000 and thinking 2000-4000 that part number I gave you will not work for that. Dave.

Does the distributer assembly come with the elusive dust cap? If so, then it's still being made, just not sold retail. Some detective work might be in order to determine who is making the dust caps and supplying them to the distributer manufacturer.
