Detailed Product Information

WAI DST2696B is engineered as a complete ignition distributor assembly for vehicles that require a Hall Effect distributor. It is manufactured with all new components and tested to OE specifications to support consistent ignition timing and dependable engine operation. This part cross-references Ford OE numbers such as E6AE12127CA and E8DE12127EA for the same application.

Fitment includes 1986-1995 Ford Taurus, 1986-1995 Mercury Sable, 1992-1994 Ford Tempo, 1992-1994 Mercury Topaz, 1990-1992 Ford Probe, and 1990-1991 Ford Aerostar, including 1991 Ford Aerostar with ID# E6AE-C. The WAI DST2696B is a practical choice when replacing a worn distributor on these Ford and Mercury models.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

  • Hard starting caused by distributor wear
  • Intermittent misfire from failing internal ignition components
  • Rough idle related to inconsistent spark timing
  • Loss of ignition signal from a worn Hall Effect distributor
  • Cap and rotor deterioration affecting spark delivery

Installation Notes

Verify engine and distributor identification before installation, especially on 1991 Ford Aerostar models with ID# E6AE-C. Confirm connector style, mounting points, and timing setup before removing the original unit. Because the cap and rotor are included, the distributor arrives as a complete assembly for a straightforward replacement process.

Quality Assurance

WAI manufactures this distributor as a 100% new unit using high-grade materials and tests every distributor for long-lasting performance. It is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
