DELCO-REMY Single Breaker Point Distributors: Description

Distributor is a single breaker design. Centrifugal advance is accomplished with conventional weights and springs. On some models, the advance mechanism is located under the rotor which serves as a cover. Other models, of more conventional design, have centrifugal advance mechanism mounted below breaker plate. Vacuum advance/retard, if equipped, is controlled by a vacuum diaphragm unit mounted on distributor housing and linked to breaker plate.
