★ This standard spark plug wire set offers a reliable and affordable solution for the 24 volt ignition system of the M201, without the complexity and high costs of the original shielded radio-suppression version.
Application
Suitable for Hotchkiss M201 jeeps fitted with the 24 volt electrical system. The French Army introduced the 24 volt system on the M201 from 1960 onwards to replace the earlier 6 volt system, aiming for NATO uniformity and improved compatibility with military radio equipment.
Installation notes
Attach the cables in the correct order according to the firing order of the L-134 engine (1-3-4-2). Ensure the cables click properly onto the spark plugs and distributor cap. When using with Gabriel Lyon waterproof distributors, ensure correct connection of the ventilation hoses to prevent overheating.
Compatibility
These standard cables are NOT suitable for vehicles originally fitted with shielded ignition wiring for radio interference suppression. M201 radio jeeps used shielded cables (ABG system) which are considerably more expensive. This set is compatible with waterproof distributors of the Gabriel Lyon and ABG Paris type when shielding is not required.
Historical context
The French Army adopted the 24 volt electrical system on the Hotchkiss M201 from 1960 onwards, partly for NATO uniformity and partly for improved compatibility with military radio equipment. Radio jeeps received shielded ignition wiring to minimise electromagnetic interference.
