I have a Mercury Villager that would run great until it got hot and the it would start skipping and backfireing. I tried everything, finally I took the distributor apart, and inside, under the rotor cap, was a metal plate, I took it off to find a Photo Censor inside, there is a round plate inside that goes thought the photo censor. I took some starting Fluid (ether) and cleaned all of it really good and wiped it off with a shop towel. put it all back together and it runs like new. Just remember to make sure you put your distributor back in just like it came out or it want be in time. DO NOT TURN THE MOTOR OVER WHILE YOU HAVE THE DISTRIBUTOR OUT!!!. Good Luck
