Distributor Ignition Pickup for GM V8 Applications

Standard Ignition LX-304 is a distributor ignition pickup built for older Pontiac, Buick, and Oldsmobile applications that rely on a stable trigger signal for ignition timing. It uses copper windings and permanent magnets to support strong signal output, with high-temperature enameled wire for added insulation and durability.

Key Features

  • Female connector and female terminal design
  • 2 blade terminals for direct distributor pickup connection
  • Copper windings and permanent magnets for consistent signal emission
  • High-temperature enameled wire insulation
  • Built for electronic ignition systems where the original pickup has failed
  • Standard Ignition LX-304 for select GM distributor applications

Detailed Description

The LX-304 distributor ignition pickup is engineered for vehicles that need a reliable magnetic trigger inside the distributor. Standard Ignition applies OE-level manufacturing control from component selection through final assembly, helping maintain consistent electrical performance. This pickup is a practical replacement for worn or failed ignition trigger components in classic Pontiac, Buick, and Oldsmobile distributor systems, including Pontiac Firebird, Grand Prix, LeMans, and Grand Am applications.

This part cross-references Spectra Premium MP102 for the same application. Standard Ignition LX-304 is also referenced by aftermarket numbers such as 3-3005 and DR101.

What It Helps Address

  • Intermittent or weak distributor trigger signal
  • Hard starting caused by ignition pickup failure
  • Misfire or rough running from inconsistent spark timing
  • No-start conditions related to distributor signal loss
  • Ignition performance issues in aging GM electronic ignition systems
