- 100% new points and condensers installed where applicable
- Electronic module components are computer tested for full functionality
- Automated test equipment checks signal strength, polarity, air gap, reluctor tooth size, ignition coil, and pickup performance
- Precise machining tolerances help prevent oil leakage, poor timing, check engine light issues, and premature failure
- Guaranteed fit and function
- Meets or exceeds OEM performance requirements
- O.E. components with high failure rates are replaced or repaired during remanufacturing
Detailed Description
CARDONE 31-45427 is a remanufactured distributor designed to restore proper ignition timing and spark delivery in select Chrysler, Dodge, and Mitsubishi vehicles. This Hall Effect distributor is built without a distributor cap, coil wire, ignition rotor, or integrated ignition coil, so it is intended for applications that reuse the correct related ignition components already on the vehicle. The gray housing and remanufactured construction support consistent operation in 6-cylinder engines where accurate signal transmission is critical.
Compatible With 2002-2005 Chrysler Sebring, 2002-2005 Dodge Stratus, 2002-2005 Mitsubishi Eclipse, and 2002-2003 Mitsubishi Galant. This part number 31-45427 is a direct-fit ignition distributor choice for drivers replacing a worn or failing unit in these applications.
This part cross-references Chrysler, Dodge, and Mitsubishi OE number MD375920 for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Hard starting caused by weak or inconsistent distributor output
- Misfires related to incorrect spark timing
- Rough idle from worn distributor internals
- Check engine light concerns tied to ignition signal problems
- Oil leakage or premature distributor failure from worn housing tolerances
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify engine configuration and existing ignition system layout before installation. Transfer or reuse any related components only when the vehicle application requires them, since the distributor cap, coil wire, rotor, and integrated ignition coil are not included with this part. After installation, confirm base timing and inspect ignition connections to ensure proper operation.
Quality Assurance
CARDONE remanufactured distributors are processed under stringent quality standards and tested with automated equipment to confirm signal strength, polarity, air gap, reluctor tooth size, and pickup performance. The remanufacturing process replaces or repairs high-failure O.E. components and uses precise machining tolerances to support reliable operation and OEM-level fit and function.
