You probably did everything fine, the manufacturer of the distributor cap is probably taking the cheap way out. It's been a couple of years now, but I had to maintain a fleet of about 30 forklifts that included 3 Allis-Chalmer 10K pound forklifts. These three forklifts would run from 8-16 hours a day and there was h3ll to pay if they experienced downtime. Each of these three forklifts had a propane-burning Continental 6 cylinder flat head engine in them that used a crab-style distributor cap so that there was clearance between the distributor cap and the operator's seat. Toward the end of their service, it was a hassle to not only find these caps, but to find a good quality cap. It seemed like no matter what brand you would find, they all came from the same factory, just boxed different and I'm pretty sure each cap didn't last 200-300 hours. I'm glad those things are gone.
