breakerless distributor in a stock tbi truck???

[K1500 gramnolds]

Will this type of distributor work on my truck (89 k1500 5.7) Found on CL for cheap and I need to replace mine in a bad way...

Negative ghostrider.



Edit: What's wrong with your distributor?

No.

Nothing wrong with the stock style distributors, just get a replacement.

I took my cap off yesterday for the first time, and the inside of the dizzy was rusty, the rotor & button is "burnt", and the cap is suffering from corrosion and carbon tracks. I went ahead and bought a new stock replacement cap, rotor, and coil at good `ol AutoZone. Recently bought a new 369 ignition module and plan on fixing all of this stuff today.

little tip, i have never had good luck with aftermarket modules, always seem to burn out on TBI's after 6 months, always replaced with original crusty OEM Delco ones, never had one fail.

Thanks for the info. I wound up using a stock replacement cap, rotor, and coil. Left the ICM alone because it seemed to be fine, but I got a spare and put it in the glovebox just in case.
