Chevy Venture Distributor

Your ignition system should maintain a systematic firing order or sequence. Firing order is the consecution of igniting the spark plugs creating electricity that goes to the ignition coil up to the spark plugs causing the engine to start. If the high voltage generated from the ignition coil is not displaced correctly, then you wouldn’t have a cranked engine ready to set your car in motion. Spark timing is really important; if not it could wreck havoc to your engine since misplaced sparks poses great danger of setting up fire putting your car in jeopardy. The only component that is in control of getting the sparks in its proper sequence is the distributor like your car’s Chevrolet Venture Distributor.

The Chevrolet Venture distributor caters high voltage of electricity to all the components included in your engine system specifically the sparkplugs and sparkplug wires. The distribution of electricity is handled by the cap and rotor forming the whole distributor assembly. The ignition coil is linked to the distributor’s rotor which is held in place by the distributor’s cap above the distributor shaft. The metal rotor spins and presses against a carbon brush as the high voltage passes through series of contacts where each of this contact is connected to a cylinder where the sparkplug is mounted. As the rotor reaches each contact, the electricity is pulse into the cylinder contacts through the spark plug wires.

Your car’s Chevrolet Venture distributor engages breaker points which either have a vacuum advance or centrifugal advance mechanism. The distributor shaft has one or more points or cams that deliver pulses of electricity to operate the contact breakers which is the switching device of the distributor. This contact breaker advances the ignition timing that gives the fuel time to burn as the pistons reaches the cylinder through the pressure resulting from the gases generated from the fuel burned. It is important that advance timing is sustained to prevent pre-ignition which causes air/fuel mixture explosion outside the pocket of combustion surface.

It is just normal that your Chevrolet Venture distributor succumb to heat and pressure which will result to its corrosion or wear and tear. While the distributor cap is relatively easy to replace it is always advantageous to replace the entire distributor assembly to ensure a usual efficient performance.
