The distributor in the vehicle’s ignition system of an internal combustion engine is that device that routs the high voltage in the correct firing order to the spark plugs. Every distributor system consists of a rotating arm or the rotor inside the distributor cap, on top of the distributor shaft, but insulated from it and the body of the vehicle. The metal part of the rotor contacts the central high voltage cable from the coil via a spring loaded carbon brush. This then passes close to the output contacts which then connect via a high tension cables to the spark plug of each cylinder.

And as the rotor spins within the distributor, the electrical current is bale to jump the small gaps created between the rotor arm and the contacts due to the high voltage created by the ignition coil. Also the distributor shaft has a cam that operates the contact breaker. And opening the points causes a high induction voltage in the system’s ignition coil. Once you install the distributor into your vehicle system, this performance part will deliver maximum power that is provided by multiple sparks and the capacity discharge ignition technology.

The brand has been in the competition niche market since the 1970s, and leading the market with its ground breaking auto ignition research and product development, so you can be sure that every MSD product, the distributors included, will deliver optimum performance. So, if you need a replacement distributor, why don’t you consider this MSD distributoR? Every distributor from this brand will deliver that accurate trigger signals and is maintenance free. Not only that, it is also made from precision CNC- machined billet aluminum housing, that features a sealed ball bearing and long sintered bushing for stability at any rpm and increased endurance, and every distributor is supplied with high quality cap, rotor and gear.
