What This Part Helps Correct

• Electrical continuity issues at the distributor
• Service replacement needs on dual points and Loadamatic distributor systems

Installation Notes

Verify distributor style and application notes before installation. The FDL-10 uses male blade terminals and a 4 1/8 in. lead length, so the routing and terminal orientation should match the original setup on the vehicle. This part cross-references Standard Motor Products (e.g., DL17, LW32) for the same application.
