    starter keeps turning even with switch off

    How often would the guess be in this case that it is starter contacts versus bad ground? I'm interested because I have a similar issue. I'm leading toward bad grounds. Would welded contacts be detected if a starter got bench tested and passed?

    New Distributor, no fire

    I had a similar problem. I would suggest: 1. - I'd double checked your wire connections and . 2. - re-seat and re time your dizzy again. I made up my mind that I was a few teeth off; making it either far too advanced or far too retarded ( I can't recall which), But checking/fixing those...
