This isn't a tractor question, but a lot of you guys on the board are pretty sharp in the automotive field, so here goes---. My '92 S-10 four cylinder eats distributor caps. When I bought it at 98000 Mi. I was told by the previous owner that I would have to replace the cap every six months because it cracks, and the owner before him, who I think bought it new, said the same thing.Is this the nature of the beast or what? What causes this? I just now replaced the cap and it was cracked plus the center tower was eaten up inside the cap. The stud in the tower pulled out with the coil wire and fell apart. This cap had about 6000 miles on it, but the pickup started acting up a couple of months before I pulled the cap off. I also replaced the plug wires along with the new cap this time, but the old wires checked out the same as the new ones on the OHM meter. Jim
