Keep the spark going to every cylinder with the Standard Ignition Distributor Cap GB-421. It routes high-voltage current from the ignition rotor out to each spark plug wire in the correct firing order, and it installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed classic applications — including the 1964-1970 Volkswagen Beetle, 1964-1970 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia, 1963-1969 Volkswagen Transporter, and the 1966-1967 NSU Prinz. See the full year-make-model coverage below.

  • Distributes ignition voltage: transfers the coil's high-voltage output from the rotor to the individual plug-wire terminals to fire each cylinder.
  • Covers and protects the distributor: shields the internal contacts from dirt, moisture, and debris that can cause misfires.
  • Direct-fit replacement: designed as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications.

Signs this cap may need replacing include hard starting, rough idle, misfires, or arcing/carbon tracking on a cracked or corroded cap. Because these symptoms can have other causes, diagnose the ignition system before replacing.
