Detailed Description

The WAI DST18401 distributor is built for drivers and technicians who need a complete ignition replacement that matches OE requirements. Its optical design, aluminum housing, and melonized steel gear support consistent operation, while the included cap, rotor, and ignition coil reduce the need to source separate components. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 8-97107-852-0, D4P94-01) for the same application. Fits 1996 Honda Passport, N/A. Fits 1996 Isuzu Rodeo, N/A, from 12/95. Fits 1997 Isuzu Rodeo, N/A. The DST18401 is a practical choice for Honda Passport and Isuzu Rodeo ignition service where OE-style fitment matters.

Common Uses

  • Restoring spark timing when the original distributor is worn
  • Replacing a failed ignition distributor assembly
  • Addressing rough running caused by distributor wear
  • Correcting ignition performance issues related to cap, rotor, or coil wear

Installation Notes

Verify engine and application details before installation. Match the distributor gear and attachment style to the original unit, and confirm the fitment note for 1996 Isuzu Rodeo applications built from 12/95. The complete assembly format helps streamline replacement on Honda Passport and Isuzu Rodeo service jobs.
