Post by: mcclainjlkcmsncom on May 30, 2020, 22:57:00: Hi again all I have a post going on earlier about my car not running well.I am going to do some things that were advised to help me.I do have another question about the distributor in my car.It is a Bosch 0231 116 068 (J1U6) I cannot find any information on this checked bosch classic website and a bunch of different websites the highest number I see is 067.Mine is alum body I believe vac retard.I want to check and make sure I have the proper rotor and cap.Does anybody know where I can find this info
