MINI & MOKE 23D DISTRIBUTOR – ELECTRONIC – NO VAC [AEOW-23D4]

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Electronic mechanical advance distributor to suit Mini and Moke A-Series engines.

This [23D] distributor is normally fitted to 1275 Mk1 Cooper S models using a mechanical advance setup with a side entry distributor cap. It is a great option for customers wanting the classic no-vacuum distributor style while gaining the reliability and reduced maintenance benefits of electronic ignition.

WHY CHOOSE THIS DISTRIBUTOR?

This electronic [23D] distributor gives the appearance and advance style suited to mechanical advance applications, while removing the wear and adjustment issues normally associated with points ignition.

IMPORTANT ELECTRONIC IGNITION WARNING

These distributors are factory tested before supply. When connected and used correctly, they are reliable units.

The main causes of electronic module failure are:

• Reverse polarity connection
• Incorrect or low resistance ignition coil
• Faulty old ignition coil
• Static timing with an old-style test lamp
• Incorrect wiring during installation

Do not carry out static timing using a traditional test lamp, as this can send voltage through the electronic circuit in the wrong direction and damage the module.

PLEASE NOTE

This is an electronic component. Incorrect wiring, incorrect coil selection or improper testing can damage the unit.

Please confirm your vehicle is fitted with an A-Series engine, mechanical advance distributor setup and suitable ignition coil before installation.
