Turbo distributor identification?
Turbo Mini Forums

I'm looking for a genuine turbo distributor but having never seen one, makes the task a little tricky. How do you tell one apart from standard types? They must have identifiable characteristics or serial numbers etc.

ID No. 41932 stamped on the side of the Dizzi 1982-84 this type has the seperate ignition module which when fitted to the metro is mounted on the clutch bell housing.

ID No. 42628 or 42628A fitted to Metro turbos from 1984 on. This type has the ignition module fitted to the side of the dizzi.

Good luck.

Rob.

Thanks for reply, so there's three types. Are they all the same or do they have different curves? Is there one that's better or worse than the rest or is it just different numbers? Thanks again.

The advance curves are the same on all. The later type with the module mounted on the side is certainly a neater install.
