Standard Ignition Distributor Cap P/N:JH-79
Standard Ignition Distributor Cap P/N:JH-79
$19.99

Send high-voltage spark to each cylinder in firing order with the Standard Ignition JH-79 Distributor Cap, a direct-fit replacement for the 1979-1980 Toyota Celica and the 1980-1982 Toyota Cressida. The cap covers the distributor and carries the coil's output through the rotor to each spark plug wire terminal. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.

  • Quality control throughout: Standard is a global maker of original equipment ignition products and keeps quality control in place from individual components through to the finished product.
  • Decades of development: Its distributor caps and rotors build on decades of research and development work.
  • Reinforced polyester body: Made of high dielectric strength, glass/mineral reinforced polyester resin for less carbon tracking and greater resistance to electrical breakdown.
  • Resistors and terminals: Where specified, RFI resistors are used to help suppress radio static and potential voltage spikes that could harm the ECU. Where available, solid brass terminals help make a better connection and resist electrical pitting and corrosion.

A distributor cap works in a hot, high-voltage environment. Over time its terminals can burn or corrode, and its body can crack or develop carbon tracks. Signs the cap may need replacing include misfires, hard starting, a rough idle, or visible cracks and tracking. If a worn cap is the cause, this part replaces it. Inspect the rotor while the cap is off.
