Detailed Product Description

The JR-197 distributor rotor by Standard Ignition is engineered to maintain proper ignition timing and efficient spark distribution in Nissan 310 and Sentra vehicles.

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation of the Standard Ignition JR-197 distributor rotor is straightforward due to its push-on mount design.

Verify that the rotor is seated securely to avoid ignition issues. Since mounting hardware is not included, retain any original fasteners during replacement.
