What is a Distributor Coil?

An essential ignition component, the distributor coil, distributes the spark to each spark plug in the engine. Voltage from the ignition coil is transmitted to the distributor cap through a spark plug wire. This voltage then travels through the center terminal of the cap to the rotor inside the distributor.

As the distributor rotates, the rotor delivers electricity one by one to the outer terminals of the cap. From there, the electricity flows through individual spark plug wires to each spark plug, igniting the air/fuel mixture inside the engine for smooth operation.
