what is the reason for spark arcing out on the fastening lugs on the distributor cap

intrade, Apr 24, 8:29pm
probably something not right with the cap. Did you ever service the car!
also what year 1984!

new plugs

zaggy11, Apr 24, 8:31pm
it is a 1985

intrade, Apr 24, 8:32pm
you have to change the distributor cap and rotor also every now and then as part of service. its why japanese cars fry up the electronic chip when cap and leads are never changed.

Great cars, watch the cooling system on the 380, was known at the time for over heating problems, otherwise good cars.
