Replacing a distributor is a crucial task in maintaining the optimal performance of an internal combustion engine. A distributor is responsible for directing high-voltage current from the ignition coil to the spark plugs in the correct firing order, ensuring proper combustion and engine operation.
A faulty or malfunctioning distributor can lead to a range of issues, such as engine misfires, rough idling, and difficulty starting. Replacing the distributor proactively can prevent these problems and ensure the smooth and efficient running of the engine.
