When your Suzuki starter is having so me trouble, the common cause is faulty battery. But then again, the problem could actually be the starter itself, maybe the alternator, and it could also be the distributor. These auto parts all play vital role in cranking an automobile. With the battery is where the starter gets electricity to power it, and the alternator is the one that charges the battery with enough electricity for the starter and the rest of electrically charged auto devices. The distributor is the ignition system that fires current to the spark plugs and set the starter working.
A Suzuki distributor, like the distributors of other internal combustion engines is designed to route current in correct firing order to the spark plugs, until it successfully ignites the starter and put the engine in operation. It is comprised of three sets of breaker points or terminals through which the current flows. In these terminals are parts where the current travels and transferred to the wires that lead to the spark plugs, the distributor cap, distributor rotor and the distributor shaft.
In the mid section or mid terminal, the corners of the spinning breaker cam strike the breaker arm and separate the points at about 160 miles an hour. In that process current is allowed to flow. Placed on top of the distributor is the distributor cap. This is the auto part where the high tension current is distributed. On its end are cap terminals through which the high voltage ignited from the ignition coil jumps up to the spark plugs. Beforehand, the current travels to the rotor which whirls inside a circle of high-tension terminals in the distributor cap, and then directed to the metal projection in the cap. The rotor is located on the upper end of the distributor shaft. At the lower portion of the distributor is another set of breaker point with which 12-volt electricity released from the battery or alternator is channeled.
If the distributor of your Suzuki is the one that’s causing hard startup, immediately check the condition of its parts and do what is necessary. Replace defective distributor rotor, because it is non-reusable once damaged. See to it that the distributor caps aren’t worn so to avoid spark resistance. Also, make sure that the connections are properly installed in order for the current to flow smoothly and give out good spark.
