Product Description

Complete electronic ignition distribtutor for Citroen ID and DS models.This electronic distributor specifically targeted for the Citroen ID/DS. It contains all the curves for carbureted ID/DS-engines as originally specified by Citroen, for cars after July 1959. Click here to see the installation instructions.With a switch you can easily choose the advance-curve that was specified for your engine.It comes with an angled distributor-cap, for easy access to the sparkplug-leads. Might you prefer un upright cap, please specify a '123DS-R'For ID's until 2/1964 Citroen used a distributor with vacuum-advance. To replace this you should order a '123DS-R-V'.ID-19B's from 9-'66 until 9-'68 with 'DV'-engine , and DS19A / DS19MAampID19FA with 'DY'-engine from '65 to '68 require a different fixation. For these cars we offer a '123DV-R' with a special mounting bracket.The ignition-system in a classic car is often the source of many problems. After many years the mechanical system is worn, and replacement of the points with an optical or magnetical setup, does not make up for wear in the advance-mechanism, the shaft and bearings etc.Well, 123ignition is different. It comes in a housing, that exactly looks like its mechanical counterpart on the outside, but that houses a lot of high-tech on the inside.A 123ignition keeps the looks under the bonnet 'original', but makes the engine spin like a Japanese sewing-machineMoreover : you don't have to sacrifice your mechanical distributor.
