school me on dist

Thanks for the advice, just to clarify no-one over there told me I needed to do anything with dist. other than chuck it and get an HEI ( which I dont want to do at this point )

I would like to learn how to perform maintenance/driveability issues and am reading prior posts to do so and this only leads to alot more questions such as what I mentioned above.

Looks like I pissed away 30 dollars for a handful of springs at this point for sale over on .org that were going to help me tune my dist. Its my fault for not asking more questions on sites like .org and this one so again knowedge is power.
