I have run into problems with the stator wiring on two HEI distributors over the years. When the stator plate was moved by the vacuum advance, it cause intermittent or open circuits in the stator signal to the module.

In one case, the engine would quit when the vacuum advance was hooked up. In the other, it would run very erratic.
