Everything about Distributor
Device in the ignition system of an internal combustion engine
A distributor is an electric and mechanical device used in the ignition system of older spark-ignition engines. The distributor's main function is to route electricity from the ignition coil to each spark plug at the correct time. Wikipedia →
