Hi Again 79
The Summit picture DOES match his new one, Both helix's go like this///// What Summit sent matches their picture. Neither one matches his old one. That helix goes like this\\\\\ Do me a favor and look again at his pics and what is labeled as old(Prestolite) and new(Mallory) I'm starting to feel like I'm in a chat room or something. keno |

hi 79
First of all i want to realy thank you for your efforts.i dont take it as granted. The ylu/ylm554cv both have the gear cut like this //// and the prestolite i have is like this \\\\ and thats a fact. The number on the mallory dist' is ylm554cv and its new. Take a look: http://s32.photobucket.com/albums/d31/yanivsai/distributor/ In the pcm service manual they explain what is RH and LH engine by looking from front to back (pully)of the boat. RH - pully turns CCW LH - pully turns CW - LH is standart automotiv rotation - most of the engines are LH. My engine is RH. They also saing that all distributers in ford engines turn CCW regardless of engine rotation so i think thay are the same except the gear cut.swamp the gear and put it in. I have noticed today that the old dist' shaft have strange marks on it and he is 13mm dia. while the mallory is 12.8mm.its also been cut at the bottom end very ugly and was roughly grided. i dont think this is the original dist'. Im waiting for some aswers about the engine from PCM customer service at ohio. Again,thank you very much for the help.i dont think i could figre this one alone. I'll change gears and try it on thursday ,and i hope to ski that day. yaniv |

All ski nautiques prior to the 1.23:1 transmissin interduction are reverse rotation RH motors from the factory, with very few exceptions. personally I believe you have a LH standard rotation engine from a car and that's why the YLM-554-CV doesn't work.

"The first r in the serial number indicates you have a right hand rotation engine. The distributor gear will not interchange. You will need to get the proper distributor."
the answer from mark schneider pcm ohio... now what ????? |

your assuming it's the orginal motor, and if it is then the cv should have worked fine. I've already told you what the issue is, wrong motor rotation identification or a missed boxed distributor. Your dealling with a 25 year old boat and the odds of the thing being orginal is slim and none, show me a picture of the prop on the boat, not a new one you have bought, but the one that is on the boat that the old distributor worked with and then I will tell you if your issue is the dist or your rotation identification is wrong.

Hey 79
Make sure you read the HEI distributor post that snuck back in here after a couple of years. It seems you have flip flopped from back then on what a DV or a CV are used for. Just trying to understand these Mallory's and get yaniv's problem fixed. keno |

Hi there 79
I've seen that before and it seems to think that every Ford out there is RH rotation and they don't make anything for a normal rotating Ford. Your answer also tells me you haven't really read or maybe comprehended anything that has been said so far. We know that there are distributors for both rotations otherwise think about all those poor Mastercraft owners out there. You even talk about CV's and DV's and your favorite catalog (Summit)lists both along with other places like DIM. Are you basing all this on what that Mallory page says. Come on use that experience you have Maybe you should go pull your distributor to verify what you think. Mine came out last night to verify what I think. I verified it, I'm happy. Well got to head out on the water. I'm done here keno |

my boat is over 400 miles away and I've had the cover off of it twice so far this year and have not even had it in the water this year so it's a little hard to check out what I have. I looked at the catolog and gave the number listed there.
