Distributor Volvo 240/260 (463832) (B21E)

Rough idling, misfiring or a weak spark on a cold start can point to a worn distributor cap or a burned-out rotor arm – both are common checkpoints when the ignition on a B21E starts to waver. This category gathers wear and service parts for the distributor on the Volvo 240 with the B21E fuel-injection engine.

The group includes distributor caps and rotor arms, vacuum regulators for ignition advance, plus smaller parts such as safety rings, screw and grease for fitting and lubrication. When overhauling, it is worth checking that the cap's carbon contacts and the arm's contact surface are not pitted, and that the vacuum regulator holds pressure. Since the design differs between engine variants, the fit of the parts should be verified against the B21E specifically before replacement.
