Reliable Distributor for Chrysler and Dodge Vehicles

The WAI DST49600 distributor is designed to provide consistent ignition performance for select Chrysler and Dodge models. Engineered with durable aluminum housing and equipped with essential ignition components, this distributor supports efficient engine operation in vehicles like the Dodge Avenger, Chrysler Sebring, and Dodge Stratus.

Key Features of the WAI DST49600 Distributor

  • Aluminum housing for lightweight durability and heat resistance
  • Includes ignition coil, distributor cap, and ignition rotor for a complete ignition solution
  • Screw-type distributor cap attachment ensures secure fitting
  • Hall effect distributor type for precise ignition timing
  • New cap and rotor included with each unit to maintain optimal performance

Detailed Product Description

The WAI DST49600 distributor is a Hall effect type distributor, which uses a magnetic sensor to provide accurate ignition timing signals. Its aluminum housing offers strength while minimizing heat absorption, contributing to longer service life. This distributor comes complete with a new ignition coil, distributor cap, and rotor, eliminating the need for separate purchases and ensuring compatibility. The screw attachment method for the distributor cap provides a secure and stable connection, reducing the risk of cap movement or misalignment during operation. This part is specifically compatible with Chrysler and Dodge vehicles, including the Avenger, Cirrus, Sebring, and Stratus models, making it a suitable replacement for worn or faulty distributors in these vehicles.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

  • Replacement for faulty or worn distributors in Chrysler and Dodge Avenger, Cirrus, Sebring, and Stratus
  • Resolves ignition misfires caused by distributor cap or rotor wear
  • Improves engine starting reliability and smoothness
  • Addresses erratic engine performance due to Hall effect sensor failure
  • Prevents ignition timing inconsistencies from damaged distributor components

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the WAI DST49600 distributor, ensure the engine is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for cylinder one. The screw-type distributor cap attachment requires proper torque to avoid loosening during engine operation. Verify all electrical connections to the ignition coil and Hall effect sensor are secure. It is recommended to check and adjust ignition timing after installation to match manufacturer specifications for Chrysler and Dodge Avenger, Cirrus, Sebring, and Stratus models.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Each WAI DST49600 distributor is manufactured to meet OEM standards, featuring a new distributor cap and rotor with every unit to ensure reliable ignition performance. The aluminum housing provides durability under typical operating conditions. Warranty details should be confirmed with the distributor or retailer, as coverage may vary.
