Ignition Distributor Rotor

The ignition distributor rotor is a component of the ignition system in a vehicle. It is typically made of plastic or metal and is located inside the distributor cap. The rotor spins inside the distributor cap and distributes the high voltage from the ignition coil to each spark plug in the correct firing order. As the rotor spins, it makes contact with the distributor cap's terminals, sending the electrical charge to the appropriate spark plug wire. This process allows for the ignition system to properly ignite the fuel-air mixture in each cylinder, resulting in the engine running smoothly.
