• Intermittent spark delivery from aging internal components

• Driveability problems related to a failing magnetic distributor

Installation Notes and Tips

Before installation, confirm engine application and connector style against the vehicle’s original distributor. Transfer any required ignition components not included with the assembly, and verify base timing after installation. Because this unit includes a new cap and rotor, it is suited for a full distributor replacement rather than a partial repair.
