Installation notes
Check the distributor type on the identification plate before fitting (e.g. IAD, IAT, IGW, IGC). Ensure the cap seats correctly and all spring clips engage securely. Check ventilation holes are clear.
Compatibility
Fits various distributor types. NOT compatible with all distributors — check the model number on your distributor first. Early and late WWII distributors sometimes used different caps (brown bakelite on IGC-4705, black on IAD-4008). Consult your distributor identification plate for certainty.
Historical context
Distributor caps were initially produced in brown bakelite during WWII, later also in black. They protected ignition components against moisture and dust under harsh field conditions.
