I recently purchased a 99 chevy suburban with 98k miles. Checked the fuel milage and found 12.5 mpg in town so I thought a tune up might not hurt. I removed the distributor cap to replace the new one and found the rear screw thread ear had broken off on the distributor. I have never seen this before in my life. Is this common on this model chevy motor or am I just lucky! I found a way to hold the cap in place and it runs fine. I'm concerned about the long haul and Highway speed driving I'm going to do this summer. Is a new distributor the only reliable fix for the problem? Anyone had this problem, but me?
