If the ignition switch is left on without the engine running, a Powerspark ignition kit automatically prevents the coil circuit from remaining energised, helping to avoid component damage and battery drain."
By comparison, a conventional points distributor left with the ignition switched on, and the points closed will continuously draw around 4 amps, overheating the coil and flattening the battery within a few hours. A Powerspark system, however, draws only around 25 milliamps when left on, meaning it could theoretically remain powered for several weeks without flattening the battery, while causing no damage to the coil.
The Lucas 25D6 Distributor is a vacuum advance distributor used in 6
cylinder vehicles from prestigious British brands including Aston Martin,
Jaguar, Triumph, Marcos, MG and Rover.
It appeared in larger saloons and sports cars of the 1960s and early
1970s.
This is a very popular replacement distributor with owners of the Jaguar, Rover.
We offer this distributor with the Powerspark Electronic Ignition Kit
Fitted and Rotor arm.
The Distributor is also fitted with a Vacuum Advance Unit
The Distributor must be Lubricated Prior to use.
When we developed our Lucas 25D6 distributor we wanted to improve on
some of the known areas of weakness in the original 25D6.
We applied our knowledge of the 25D 4 Cylinder distributor
and added an additional oil seal to the shaft, just like Lucas did when
they upgraded the 25D 4 cylinder to the 45D.
This extra oil seal makes our distributor longer lasting than other
alternatives that are out there.
Aesthetically this distributor is indistinguishable from the original
items from the 1970s.
It has a tamper proof vacuum advance unit with later push on vacuum
connection.
