 Isnt this almost common on Dakotas? I have heard a lot of this. Take your
 distributor cap off. Use a socket on the crank and turn the motor
clockwise.
  Rotor should move instantly. Stop, turn crankshaft counterclockwise.
 Again, rotor should move almost instantly. If you start at top dead center,
 you can see how many degrees of crankshaft rotation before rotor starts
 moving. Any more then five, and I would start worrying.
