ThunderSpark Distributor Cap P/N:925-1038
Keep every cylinder firing in the correct sequence with the ThunderSpark Distributor Cap 925-1068 (also written 9251068). It drops in as a direct-fit replacement across a wide range of classic and late-model applications, including the 1967-1973 SAAB 95 and 96, 1970-1980 SAAB 99, 1979-1994 SAAB 900, 1967-1979 Volkswagen Beetle, 1971-1974 Ford Pinto, 1970-1976 Porsche 914 and 1977-1982 Porsche 924 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full 155-application list.
In a conventional distributor-based ignition system, the cap routes high-voltage current from the ignition coil, through the rotor and internal terminals, to the correct spark plug to maintain the engine's firing order. Over time caps can develop carbon tracking, cracks, or corroded terminals that lead to misfires, hard starting, and drivability issues; if a worn cap is the cause, this unit replaces it.
A smart choice for a tune-up or ignition-system repair to help restore proper spark distribution.
What does the distributor cap do?
It routes high-voltage current from the ignition coil, through the rotor and internal terminals, to the correct spark plug so the engine fires in the proper order.
Which vehicles does the 925-1068 fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for 155 applications, including the 1967-1973 SAAB 95/96, 1979-1994 SAAB 900, 1967-1979 VW Beetle, 1971-1974 Ford Pinto and 1970-1976 Porsche 914. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
What are signs my distributor cap may need replacing?
Carbon tracking, cracks, or corroded terminals can cause misfires, hard starting, and rough running. Diagnose the cause first, since those symptoms can have other sources.
What is the cap made of?
It's constructed with high-dielectric, heat-resistant compounds designed to withstand high voltage, thermal cycling, and engine vibration.
Will this cap fix a misfire?
If a cracked, carbon-tracked, or corroded cap is the cause of the misfire, replacing it addresses that. Other ignition components may also need inspection.
