Ed you are the man.Thanks Chad

Well...I guess you learn something new everyday. In my 40 years of messing with cars I have never heard a distributor referred to as a dizzy. :o
Where did the term come from?

I dated a girl in college who was referred to as dizzy. As I recall, she was a distributor (of sorts) too. :)

Unreal,
Now I understand that definition of dizzy! I see that kind of dizzy all the time.:thumbsup:
Some even need to have their points adjusted! :D

"Dizzy" A Kiwi Aussie slang term..I often use it in the forums
boot trunk
bonnet hood
mudgaurd fender ..depends on ones piont of veiw...stop the mud or fendoff idiots lol
But that what a bumper is for ??
Trans auto
gearbox manual
earth ground

Steps....I can understand the "down under slang", but the thread was started by a guy from GA. Having been raised in the southern part of the US, I have never heard this term.
Oh well..like I have said ....learn something new everyday!
I have already been taken to the woodshed once this week....another trip can't be that bad. :D

but the thread was started by a guy from GA.

You got a problem with that?

J/K Scott I think I picked it up from PDQ67 or Stepoe .Heck I just couldn't spell distributor.

You got a problem with that?

Chad,
Absolutley not! I spent a lot of my life in GA...Atlanta, Augusta, Savannah, Kingsland. I'm sorry if I hit a nerve. :o
I guess I was pokin fun at myself. :yes:
As I said in my original post "Learn something new everyday"

Oh...I can't spell distrubuter either. I spell it wrong everytime. :D

Rubbish...its u guys who have the weird accent..
use your "fenders" to push road hogs out of the way instread of the bumper
Oh and dont look "yank" up in the dictionary lol

And all I wanted to know was what my dizzy fit.

Chad,
Just let me summarize this thread (with some humor):

Chad learned that his DIZZY was from a 1971 Full Size passenger car 400/255 with automatic transmission, and was assembled on April 13th, 1971.:hurray:

Scott learned that a dizzy was another term for distributer.:o

Unreal had a flashback to his school days.:D

Steps informed us that Dizzy" is a Kiwi Aussie slang term.;)

Chad and Scott do have a sense of humor.:beers::beers:

Chad can't spell distriubter.:o

Greg thinks Steps talks funny, but is intertaining.:)

Steps wants to teach us the correct use of the English languge.:noway:

Well....I think that pretty sums this up.:thumbsup:

Chad what do you think?

Spot on mate.

Pretty close...
And Americans do what they are told..
eg
Dont look up stuff in a dictionary when told not to.

Bit of humour (note the spelling) in a heap of bloody dry threads...like "my car runs hot?" "put some water in it" (pun intended) over and over, lightens (notice the spelling) the place up
