Hi fellow rolla owners!

Few weeks ago I bought a KE35 coupe for my girlfriend, it's our first Corolla and my first carby car in a long time.

Annoyingly the distributor cap has developed a crack in it which is making the car undrivable while it's cold, and I'm having a hell of a time finding a replacement.

 

The car's got a 4k block with 3k heads in it at the moment, with a brown distributor cap and appears to have an electronic ignition coil. Anyone have any idea whether it's likely to be a denso or bosch unit?

Spray it with WD40 or CRC 556 or Q20 or any of those, that will help a lot.

 

It should be written on it I think, make and model number...

picture would tell a thousand words in this case!?

Thanks guys, just took the cap down to Auto One and they just happened to have an identical replacement. It was a bosch unit, part no. GB708.

 

altezzaclub would the WD40 stop it from arcing across the crack?

I think he was just suggesting the WD40 to clean the cap up so you could find the part number. :wink:

Ah, right. I've got the old cap sitting next to me and there's definitely no part numbers on it :( But I just fitted the new cap (and fully charged battery :blinks: ) and she runs like a dream now, the girly will be very happy.
