Standard Ignition Distributor Rotor P/N:DU-316
Help keep ignition voltage flowing to each spark plug in the correct order with the Standard Ignition Distributor Rotor DU-314. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1983-1987 Renault Alliance, 1984-1986 Renault Encore and 1984-1986 Renault R18I. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
The rotor turns with the distributor shaft. As it passes each terminal of the distributor cap, it carries high voltage from the coil to that terminal. Standard Ignition is a global manufacturer of original equipment ignition products and keeps full quality control over production, from individual components to the finished product.
Signs a distributor rotor may need replacing include misfires, hard starting, rough running, or a rotor tip that looks burned, eroded or marked by carbon tracking. If a worn rotor is causing the problem, this part replaces it. Diagnose the ignition system before replacing parts, and inspect the distributor cap while it is off.
What vehicles does the Standard Ignition DU-314 fit?
It fits many vehicles, among them the 1983-1987 Renault Alliance, 1984-1986 Renault Encore and 1984-1986 Renault R18I. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
What does a distributor rotor do?
It spins with the distributor shaft and carries high voltage from the coil to each distributor cap terminal in turn, sending spark to the plugs in firing order.
Why does this rotor use brass segments?
Standard Ignition uses solid brass segments on its distributor rotors for better conductivity and a higher-voltage spark to the plugs.
How does the DU-314 help with carbon tracking?
Its high-grade dielectric strength alkyd resists dirt sticking to it. That helps reduce carbon tracking, a stray conductive path that can form on ignition parts.
What are signs my distributor rotor may be worn?
Misfires, hard starting, rough running, or a burned or eroded rotor tip may mean the rotor is worn. Other ignition faults cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the system before replacing parts.
