Distributor shaft torsion spring

Anti-rattle spring for distributor shaft drive

Small but essential spring that holds the distributor shaft in place in the oil pump drive. This component is often overlooked during restorations, but prevents rattling noises and ensures a stable connection between distributor and oil pump.

Function

Anti-rattle / stabilisation

Material

Spring steel

Part no.

WO-637615

Fitting

Slides over distributor shaft

Features

  • Prevents distributor shaft rattling
  • Ensures stable connection with oil pump drive
  • Essential component during distributor installation
  • Correct original type
  • Supplied individually

★ Many people don't even know this component exists. The spring is designed to hold the distributor shaft in place when it is inserted into the oil pump drive.

Installation notes

The spring slides over the end of the distributor shaft (top of oil pump drive). Fit this before installing the distributor. Many mechanics use the distributor without this spring, but the spring prevents the drive shaft from coming out when removing the distributor.
