These are quite easy to straighten accurately if they are bent at the top end where the rotor fits on.

Either take it to a shop that has a distributor graph, use an analogue dwell meter, or use a micrometer.

Sorry when you described it as bent then I guessed that it was ummm bent :-)

So it's got a worn bush then?

If you only require a good second hand distributor - I have a few - $25 each plus postage
