Detailed Description

FD-471 is an ignition coil replacement for older ignition systems that rely on a conventional coil design. It is listed across many Ford, Mercury, Lincoln, Chevrolet, and Geo vehicles, including 1967-1975 Ford Bronco, 1964-1966 Ford Mustang, 1955-1974 Ford Thunderbird, 1961-1967 Ford Econoline, and 1989-1992 Geo Metro applications. Use FD-471 when servicing vehicles that require a Blue Streak Premium Quality ignition coil and the fitment notes match the original ignition setup.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Weak or inconsistent spark output
• Hard starting caused by ignition coil failure
• Engine misfire under load or at idle
• Intermittent stalling related to coil breakdown
• No-start conditions tied to an open or failing coil

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify the original ignition system type before ordering, especially for breaker point and non-transistorized applications.
• Match the vehicle year, make, model, and fitment notes exactly, since several listings include serial-number or ignition-system restrictions.
• Inspect coil wiring, terminals, and mounting condition during replacement.
• Confirm the application is a canister-type coil where required, such as select Geo Metro listings.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition FD-471 is part of the Blue Streak Premium Quality line, offering a service replacement option for listed classic and late-model applications.
