loose. I happened to notice mine hanging out of the distributor when the engine was running. Tugged on it to get a better look...Big mistake! The crank angle sensor for the Hall effect transmitter sheared all three wires. This was a Sunday evening with no hope of parts. I removed the distributor and managed to fish out the stubs of the wires. I then soldered in and shrink wrapped 3 splices so I could reconnect. I pulled the wires tight and securely wrapped the whole distributor body with electrical tape to keep the wires from getting cut again....no problems so far. I still need to replace the Hall transmitter and wire connector, but I'll probably wait until it breaks again.
BTW - the townsend site has instructions(with pictures and part numbers) for rebuilding your distributor.
