1) Loose bearing/bushing in distributor body. (The shaft that the rotor screws down to, goes through a bearing, or bushing, in the distributor casting)
See if you get excessive axial run-out of this shaft, by trying to move the rotor side to side, (Front to Rear, also)
.005 deviation is too loose, (Five thousandths)
If you can feel, or see any perceptible movement, side to side, it is too much.
2) What spark plugs are you running?
Split Fire, or similar, can put too much resistance back to the rotor button. This can burn it.
(Can also burn holes in your pistons eventually)
