New HSDUC4 Distributor
for Ducellier 4-Cylinder Applications
with 3DUC4U1 Electronic Ignition Installed
(for 12-volt, negative ground electrical systems only)
Brand New Vacuum-advance HDUC4 Distributor for Most 4-cylinder
Vacuum-Advance, Points-Based Ducellier Distributors
Includes 3DUC4U1 electronic ignition conversion kit already installed, ready
to replace your worn-out Ducellier 4-cylinder, vacuum-advance distributor – Just install distributor,
connect the red wire to the coil's positive (+) terminal and the black
wire to the coil's negative terminal ( – ), connect vacuum hose to carburetor/throttle body and set the timing - Simple!
Zero-maintenance 3DUC4U1 electronic ignition means you won't have to fool
with points and timing again – always stays in perfect tune!
Distributor is a quality reproduction of the original vacuum-advance Ducellier
vacuum-advance distributor. This distributor requires a vacuum source from the carburetor
or throttle body (when used with fuel injection). Uses standard Ducellier
distributor cap, rotor, etc. Perfect replacement for worn-out Ducellier
4-cylinder, vacuum-advance distributors.
Uses these standard Ducellier replacement parts:
We assemble each distributor; everything is checked, adjusted, lubricated, etc. We then set and test the advance curve on a Sun distributor testing machine.
Timing the HSDUC4 Distributor
Use a stroboscopic timing light. Timing should be set initially at about 30° BTDC at 3,500+ RPM, vacuum hose disconnected and plugged. The distributor shaft rotates clockwise. Firing order is 1-3-4-2. No. 1 cylinder is nearest the gearbox. On the distributor cap, No. 1 lead is at the front (nearest the radiator). The ignition timing should be checked with the engine running, using a stroboscopic timing light, ensuring optimum engine performance and economy. Paint a small line of white paint on both the reference pointer and the appropriate mark on the timing scale to make them more easily seen. With the engine running at the specified speed, the appropriate timing mark should be in line with the reference pointer. Rotate the distributor body counter-clockwise to advance the timing, or clockwise to retard it.
This distributor requires a 12-volt, negative ground electrical system.
Coil: A coil with 3 Ohms or more primary resistance should be used. Stock 3+ Ohm points coil or HS34HEC high-energy coil required.
To measure primary resistance: Label and remove all wires to coil ( + or - ). Using a common digital multimeter in the 200 Ω mode, cross the red and black leads of the Ohmmeter. Allow 10 seconds or more for the reading to settle and write down the reading. Still in the 200 Ohm mode, measure between coil’s + and - terminals. Allow a few seconds for the reading to settle, until it stabilizes. Subtract the previous reading, taken with the leads crossed, to compensate for multimeter’s inherent resistance. Do not use a low-resistance coil, such as the MSD or Accel coil; they don’t have enough primary resistance for this application.
Test the charging system's maximum voltage: If the charging system voltage, measured at the coil's positive terminal, is more than 14.2 volts at 2,500+ RPM, the voltage regulator likely needs replacing. Too much voltage can damage the ignition module and other electronic components.

High secondary resistance for more voltage at the plugs Ideal for Use with Hot-Spark 4-cyl Electronic Ignition Conversion Kits with red 3-series ignition module |
Heavy-duty, high-energy coil with extra turns of copper wire in the
secondary windings for as much as 45,000 volts to the spark plugs - more turns
of copper wire than other standard-sized canister coils.
Application:
Ideal for 4-cylinder distributors. Provides more primary resistance to protect from
overheating due to high-voltage or high-temperature environments.
Designed specifically to produce maximum spark
when used
with Hot-Spark red electronic ignition conversion kits
(red ignition module). Also excellent for points-based
distributors - high primary resistance helps reduce points burning, pitting.
Epoxy-filled
canister (not oil-filled) to withstand high-vibration
environments
Rugged, mirror-polished case -
won't chip or peel like chrome-plated coil canisters.
Standard 56mm (2.2 in.) coil
diameter - fits stock coil clamps.
