Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Cracked or damaged ignition coil housing
• Worn tower seals that allow moisture intrusion
• Weak or inconsistent spark transfer through the cap assembly
• Misfire concerns related to deteriorated ignition housing components
• Service issues caused by aging distributor cap mounting surfaces

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle’s ignition system uses a Quad Four kit layout with four towers and a four-screw mounting pattern before ordering. Transfer or install the included springs, seals, and flat gaskets as directed by the instruction sheet, and inspect related ignition components such as plug wires, boots, and the coil itself during service. For best results, verify connector condition and mounting surfaces before final assembly.
