WTB RIGHT NOW - '88 Festiva vacuum advance distributor working or DOA

[Christ]

My advance dashpot is cracked, and leaks vacuum through the diaphragm. I'd be willing to buy just the dashpot, or the complete distributor, but I can't find them anywhere for less than $200 REMFG and I don't want that because I'm not keeping this engine past Spring of next year as this car is the candidate for an off-road diesel buggy build.

In the mean time, i'd like to make it run (better) than it currently does, so I kinda need one of these if anyone has one or wouldn't mind checking a junkyard. I'd be willing to pay up to $100 for one in operable and good overall condition, I know you can find them in junkyards for far less than that and shipping is $15 via USPS so you stand to make a few bucks that way.

Do you know if all 1st generation Festiva years will interchange, or does it have to be from an '88?

'88/'89 I think. Its vacuum advance. 90+ are EFI, some '89 are. Doesn't make a deference now though, stopped driving the car in favor of my Camaro.
