Ignition Control Module for Distributor Systems
Standard Ignition LX-330 is an ignition control module for distributor-mounted applications that need stable coil triggering and dependable spark control. It is built for 12-volt systems and is designed for select 1980-1981 Buick, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac vehicles with distributor ignition pickup setups.
Key Features
- Bolt-on attachment method for inside-distributor mounting
- Female connector with 2 connectors, 5 male blade terminals
- 12-volt ignition control module design
- Copper slug heat sinks help move heat away from the module
- High-temperature polymer housing helps reduce moisture intrusion and vibration damage
- Double wire bonds improve connection integrity in high-vibration service
- Durability tested through 500 thermal cycles from -40C to +125C
Detailed Description
The Standard Ignition LX-330 ignition control module is engineered for distributor ignition systems where consistent coil control matters. It responds to weak crankshaft position sensor signals and begins energizing the coils quickly, which supports easier starting in cold weather. For drivers servicing older GM platforms, this module is a direct-fit electronic ignition component for select 1980-1981 Buick Riviera, 1981 Chevrolet Camaro, and 1980-1981 Oldsmobile Delta 88 applications, along with additional Buick, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac models listed in the fitment data. This part cross-references AC Delco 1976239 and Wells E222 for the same application.
What It Helps Fix
- No-start or hard-start conditions related to ignition module failure
- Intermittent spark loss in distributor ignition systems
- Poor cold-weather starting caused by weak coil triggering
- Heat-related ignition breakdown from repeated thermal cycling
- Moisture- or vibration-related module deterioration inside the distributor
