Volvo Distributor Cap


Giving out Ignition Voltage with Volvo Distributor Cap

Together with the Volvo distributor rotor , the Volvo distributor cap reliably distributes the ignition voltage over ignition cables and connectors to the Volvo spark plugs in the individual cylinders. The distributor cap is made from different materials and is supplied with various forms of contacts and clamping arrangements to significantly match the requirements of the Volvo ignition system.

The rotor receives the high voltage from the ignition coil as it rotates inside the cap and passes the voltage to the nearest connection which is a metal projection connected to the spark plug. It is quite necessary that you check the distributor cap to know if the sparks are arcing from point to point within the cap. Aside from requiring “cleaning” the firing pint must not be eroded too.

Problems with distributor cap can be verified through visual inspection. Inspect for cracks and breaks on the cap and terminal towers as well as for gray carbon tracks. While the cap is removed, check the interior for carbon tracks and deposits and worn terminals as well as for sign of corrosion. To know the recommended distributor cap replacement intervals, consult the manual or a service manual. During a replacement, clearing the path to the distributor is the most time consuming. This is because the distributor cap may be obscured by other components, recessed under the cowl or trapped against the firewall.

The replacement can actually be made straightforward if the ignition coil is mounted away from the distributor. You just need to release the old cap, transfer the Volvo spark plug wires one at a time to the new Volvo distributor cap, and finally secure the new cap to the distributor.
