Standard Ignition Distributor Cap P/N:FD-162
Help keep high-voltage spark flowing to each cylinder in the right order with the Standard Ignition Distributor Cap FD-174. It is listed for several models, among them the 1997-2002 Jeep Wrangler, 1991-2000 Jeep Cherokee and 1996-2002 Dodge Dakota. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
The distributor cap carries high voltage from the ignition coil to the rotor, which passes it through the cap's terminals to each spark plug wire. If a cracked, carbon-tracked or corroded cap is behind a misfire or hard start, this direct-fit Jeep Wrangler distributor cap replaces it on the listed applications.
Signs a distributor cap may need replacing include misfires, hard starting, rough running, and a cap that is cracked, carbon-tracked or corroded at the terminals. These symptoms can have other causes, so diagnose before replacing.
