You start experiencing the performance the moment of igniting the starter. In the start-up several systems take control of the operation, the ignition as the prime system.

Mercedes Benz distributor is the vehicle’s ignition system in an internal combustion engine that directs the voltage in correct firing order to the spark plugs. Its operation is being completed with the job done by the distributor rotor and distributor cap. The Mercedes Benz distributor works through rotating and distributing the high tension current to the towers of the distributor cap. Its end is a substantial part of the system with which the high tension spark jumps to each of the cap terminals, should not get worn for it would consequently result to spark resistance.

The rotors are located on the upper end of the distributor shaft, and directly driven by the cam shaft through the use of the centrifugal advance mechanism. Faulty Mercedes Benz distributor rotor is non-reusable. Another very important part of the distributor is the distributor cap. This is the part where the distributor rotor rotates. It is where the high voltage coming from the ignition coil is being brought to before it pass through the metal projection in the cap and then finally to the spark plug.

A distributor is typically separated into three sections, the upper, middle and lower section. They are the terminals responsible for transferring current to the wires leading to the spark plugs. In the mid section, the corners of the spinning breaker cam strike the breaker arm and separate the points at about 160 miles an hour. The high voltage ignited by the ignition coil travels to the rotor whirling inside a circle of high-tension terminals in the distributor cap. By then the starter has been ignited.

Sure you never want any trouble in the ignition system of your Mercedes Benz. If there is something abnormal being detected on its operation, check for the distributor.
