Route ignition voltage to each spark plug wire in turn with the Standard Ignition JH-179 distributor cap, built as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1991-1994 Nissan Sentra, 1995-1996 Nissan Tsuru and 1991-1993 Nissan NX. For the full list and engine-specific details, see the Buyer's Guide tab.

The distributor cap covers the distributor. As the rotor turns beneath it, the cap carries high-voltage current from the ignition coil to the spark plug wire terminals. Cracks, carbon tracks, corroded terminals, misfires, hard starting, or a rough idle may be signs that the cap needs replacing. These symptoms can have other causes, so diagnose the ignition system before you replace parts.

  • Cap material: Made of high dielectric strength, glass/mineral reinforced polyester resin, for less carbon tracking and greater resistance to electrical breakdown.
  • Quality control: Standard is a global manufacturer of original equipment ignition products. It maintains quality control through the whole manufacturing process, from componentry to finished product.
  • RFI resistors (where specified): Intended to cut radio static and potential ECU-damaging spikes.
  • Terminals: Solid brass terminals where available, for better connections and greater resistance to electrical pitting and corrosion.
