It's either shot, or I damaged it when trying to tap the distributor gear on and off.
I was very careful to not freely whack on the shaft when trying to install/uninstall the gear, but I fear my tapping with the hammer may have pushed the advance mechanism up or down to where it's now rubbing against to part of the diz below it.
It's going to need servicing or replacing unfortunately.
