My old distributor:
0 237 302 001
PGFUD6
NOS found on eBay:
0 237 304 002
PGFU6
I just had to take it apart a little bit and swap around the plastic connectors to make it fit like before. The new one works great. I swapped out dizzies because the timing light showed the ball wiggling around too much. Now I have a smoother idle, etc.

Interesting
Are those BMW part numbers
And/or are the other numbers Bosch
Don't think I need a new or replacement dizzy, but I would like to look into this a little more

I see 3 P-car distributors on eBay at $600+, 2 with electronic ignition parts. A little steep for me

Quick search on eBay for the part number (PGFU6) quoted by OP. Porsche parts but I can see them being interchangeable. I have several BMW Bosch distributors so I was interested in the information
