• Rough idle from unstable ignition signal output
• Timing drift caused by distributor wear or machining issues
• Oil leakage concerns from poor distributor fit or tolerance wear

Installation Notes

• Verify engine configuration before ordering: 8-cylinder, electronic ignition, dual vacuum, and no governor where listed.
• Distributor cap, ignition rotor, coil wire, and integrated ignition coil are not included.
• Electronic module is not supplied.
• Confirm timing and ignition settings during installation to match the vehicle’s service specifications.
• Use the vehicle’s service manual for proper indexing and final timing adjustment.

Quality Assurance

Cardone remanufactures this distributor to stringent quality standards and tests electronic module components for functionality. Automated equipment verifies key ignition characteristics, and O.E.-style components with high failure rates are replaced or repaired to meet or exceed original performance expectations.
