Re: Cure For MSD Rust?

Yes the MSD cap for the ProBillet distributor are vented. It's not a 100% cureall for the ionization, but it shouldn't be causing much more than a hint of the red-oxidation on the steel parts.

If it actual 'RUST'...
First thing that comes to mind is.....quit steam / pressure washing the hot motor,, and / or using engine running heat to dry it off.
BAG the distributor when you pressure wash, Blow all of the water off with air, let it sit and air dry before you run it. Cooking the water out of the intake buy rnning the motor up to temp is just asking for a VERY humid environment underhood.

I don't like a nasty dirty motor either,,, but there is ways to do it that doesn't generate more issues.
