MITSUBISHI Dual Breaker Point Distributors: Description

Rotary engines use a dual breaker point distributor. One set of points is used for the leading side and the other for the trailing side. Leading and trailing breaker points are attached to individual movable breaker plates, which are connected to their own vacuum advance units. A 2-level distributor cap and a 2-level rotor are used. One level supplies the leading side, the other the trailing side. Conventional centrifugal advance with weights and springs is used.
