Caps & Rotors
Distributor caps and rotors are integral components of a vehicle's ignition system, responsible for distributing high-voltage electricity from the ignition coil to the spark plugs in the engine cylinders. The distributor cap is typically made of durable plastic or metal and contains multiple contact points that transfer electricity to individual spark plug wires. The rotor, usually housed inside the distributor cap, rotates as the engine runs, making contact with the cap's terminals to deliver the electrical charge to the appropriate spark plug at the correct timing.

When selecting the correct distributor cap and rotor for your vehicle, it's essential to consider factors such as compatibility, material, and performance. Begin by identifying the make, model, and year of your vehicle to ensure proper fitment of the distributor components. Additionally, assess the condition of your current distributor cap and rotor, checking for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage that may affect ignition performance. Choose high-quality materials like brass or copper for improved conductivity and longevity, ensuring reliable spark delivery and consistent engine performance.
