Product Details

The Cardone 30-2888 distributor is a remanufactured ignition component for vehicles that rely on electronically controlled distributor operation. It is built without a distributor cap, rotor, coil wire, or integrated ignition coil, and it does not include an electronic module. For drivers searching for a remanufactured distributor for a 1994-1995 Ford Mustang V8 or a 1991-1993 Ford Thunderbird distributor replacement, this unit provides a direct-fit service part with OE-focused restoration standards. It also serves 1991-1993 Mercury Cougar applications.

What It Helps Address

• Hard starting caused by weak or inconsistent distributor output
• Misfire concerns related to incorrect spark timing
• Rough idle from worn distributor internals
• Oil leakage around the distributor housing
• Check engine light issues tied to distributor signal problems

Installation Notes

Verify engine configuration before installation and transfer any required external components not supplied with this distributor. Because the cap, rotor, coil wire, and electronic module are not included, those parts must be confirmed separately for the application. Proper indexing and timing setup are important after installation to restore correct ignition performance.

Quality Assurance

Each Cardone Distributor remanufactured unit is processed under stringent quality standards and tested to confirm proper operation before release. The remanufacturing process focuses on restoring OE-level fit, function, and signal integrity for reliable ignition performance in Ford Mustang, Thunderbird, and Mercury Cougar applications.
