Standard Ignition LX-360 Distributor Ignition Pickup

Distributor Ignition Pickup for Cadillac V8 Applications

Standard Ignition LX-360 is a distributor ignition pickup built for select Cadillac applications from 1987 and 1990. It uses copper windings and permanent magnets to produce a strong signal, with high-temperature enameled wire for added insulation and stable performance.

For Cadillac Allante, DeVille, Fleetwood, and Commercial Chassis models, this LX-360 pickup supports reliable distributor signal generation when the original pickup has failed or become inconsistent.

Key Features

• Copper windings and permanent magnets for strong signal emission
• High-temperature enameled wire for improved insulation
• Female connector with male terminals
• 2-terminal design
• Built by Standard Ignition for electronic ignition service applications

Detailed Description

The Standard Ignition LX-360 distributor ignition pickup is an OE-style replacement for distributor systems that rely on a clean magnetic trigger signal. It is engineered with copper windings and permanent magnets to help maintain consistent signal output, while the enameled wire construction supports insulation under elevated underhood temperatures. This part number, LX-360, is listed for 1987 Cadillac Allante and 1990 Cadillac Commercial Chassis, DeVille, and Fleetwood applications.

This part cross-references Spectra Premium MP139 for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

• Intermittent distributor trigger signal
• No-start condition caused by pickup failure
• Rough running from unstable ignition timing input
• Misfire related to weak distributor signal
• Heat-related insulation breakdown in the pickup circuit

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style before installation: LX-360 uses a female connector with male terminals and a 2-terminal layout. Confirm distributor application and vehicle year before ordering, especially on 1987 Cadillac Allante and 1990 Cadillac DeVille, Fleetwood, and Commercial Chassis models. Inspect related ignition components during service to ensure the distributor system is restored correctly.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition manufactures electronic ignition components with in-process quality control from component production through final assembly. The LX-360 is built to address common failure points found in original equipment ignition pickups.
