I wrote a message, but didn't think it went through--I'll repeat. I had a broken distributor drive gear (plastic) on my 1990 90CQ, and after replacing it with a bosch distributor with metal gear, I get a rattling (between a rattling and a grinding) around 2000 rpms, it seems to be coming from the distributor area. I believe this to be a piece of plastic from the old drive gear caught between some gear teeth? Otherwise I would have to think it may be a problem with the cam shaft. Any suggestions? I wish I didn't have to claim this as urgent, but I have little other choice--I'm nearing 3 weeks without my car, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, where's the best place to order a Bentley for my car (90CQ)? My mechanic will sell me one at his cost ($90 or so?) -- still a little pricey, but can you put a price on priceless knowledge? Thanks! Jason 90CQ
