Standard Ignition Distributor Cap and Rotor Kit P/N:DR-473
Standard Ignition Distributor Cap and Rotor Kit P/N:DR-473
$242.99

Help deliver high-voltage spark to every cylinder with the Standard Distributor Cap and Rotor Kit DR-473. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1994-1996 Chevrolet Impala, 1997 Chevrolet Camaro and 1994-1996 Chevrolet Caprice. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.

The kit contains a distributor cap and a rotor. As the rotor turns inside the cap, it routes the ignition coil's high-voltage output to each spark plug terminal in firing order.

  • Reinforced cap material: The cap is made from high dielectric-strength, glass/mineral-reinforced polyester resin. It is designed for less carbon tracking and greater resistance to electrical breakdown.
  • Solid brass terminals: The terminals are intended to make better connections and to resist electrical pitting and corrosion.
  • Full process control: Standard is a global manufacturer and controls production from the individual components through to the finished product.
  • Aftermarket heritage: Standard has served the automotive aftermarket since 1919 and offers broad coverage for repair needs.

Signs this part may need replacing: engine misfire, rough running, hard starting, a cracked cap, visible carbon tracks, or worn or corroded terminals. Diagnose the ignition system first. If the cap and rotor are the cause, this kit replaces both.
