⚙️ Key Features

  • 0.200 kg
  • Supersedes 841070, previously catalogued as a cover
  • 47 applications listed

🔌 Function

Carries the high-tension spark from the rotor to each plug lead in firing order.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

  • Misfire or stumble that worsens in damp weather
  • Carbon tracking visible between the internal terminals
  • Corroded or eroded terminal posts
  • Cracks or crazing in the moulding
  • Hard starting with a strong smell of unburnt fuel

🛠️ Service Notes

  • Renew the rotor, leads and plugs alongside it - a tracked cap has usually been arcing for a while
  • Check the cap is dry and seated fully; a hairline crack lets moisture in and the fault returns intermittently
  • No engine families are named against this number, so confirm the application before ordering
