Ford F-Series Distributor

The Ford F-Series truck's distributor is a part of the ignition system on older models, and sends power to the spark plugs using a distributor cap, rotor, and spark plug wires, along with an ignition coil. The distributor is turned using a gear attached to a rod powered by the camshaft, which keeps the cam and distributor in sync to create proper ignition timing for combustion. While distributors tend to be very reliable and durable, they can wear out with time. If your Ford F-Series truck is misfiring, has incorrect ignition timing or if the ignition timing won't advance with acceleration, has no spark to the spark plug wires, or if the components inside the distributor have seized, the distributor may need to be replaced. O'Reilly Auto Parts carries distributors, ignition coils, and other ignition parts for your Ford F-Series so you can get your truck back on the road.
