Automotive Ignition Distributors
Automotive Ignition Distributors are devices used in internal combustion engines to route high voltage electricity from the ignition coil to the spark plugs in the correct firing order. They are responsible for distributing electrical power to the spark plugs at the precise moment needed to ignite the air-fuel mixture in each cylinder. Ignition distributors typically consist of a rotating shaft with a rotor that spins inside a cap containing contact points for each spark plug wire. This component plays a crucial role in the operation of the engine by ensuring proper timing and firing sequence for optimal performance.
