Mine still worked, surprisingly for being ~35 years old when I had the truck.
What was the actual benefit of it supposed to be, though? It basically read the ported engine vacuum and advanced the timing? Didn't a regular vacuum advance distributor do the same exact thing, and according to many people, do a better job of it too?
