What It Helps Address

• Ignition dwell drift from contact wear
• Intermittent ignition performance on classic Chevrolet, Pontiac, Buick, and Oldsmobile models
• Service replacement for vehicles that retain original-style contact point ignition

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify distributor type, engine configuration, and any fitment notes before installation. Some applications require an external condenser, while others exclude high-RPM engines or transistorized/capacitor discharge ignition systems. Set point gap and ignition timing to factory specifications after installation, and inspect distributor cap, rotor, wires, and coil condition at the same time. Standard Ignition DR-3575C should be matched to the exact vehicle listing for proper operation.
