Detailed Description
Built for direct replacement service, the WAI DST49602 is engineered to meet or exceed original equipment manufacturing and performance specifications. This distributor is manufactured with all new components and tested before release to support consistent ignition performance in 2001 Chrysler Sebring, 2001 Dodge Stratus, 2000-2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse, and 1999-2001 Mitsubishi Galant applications. If you are replacing a worn distributor on a Mitsubishi Galant or Eclipse, or servicing a Chrysler Sebring or Dodge Stratus ignition system, the DST49602 provides an OE-style solution with the major ignition components already assembled.
This part cross-references Mitsubishi MD342884 and MD374416 for the same application.
Common Problems This Part Can Address
- Hard starting caused by distributor wear
- Misfire from inconsistent ignition signal output
- Rough idle related to failing distributor components
- Intermittent spark delivery from aging internal parts
- Cap and rotor wear that affects ignition timing stability
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify engine application and connector style before installation. Confirm the existing distributor orientation and timing position during removal so the replacement can be installed correctly. Because this unit includes the cap, rotor, and ignition coil, it reduces the need to transfer major ignition components from the old assembly. For best results, inspect related ignition wiring and spark plugs during service.
