Distributor Caps

The distributor cap in your Mitsubishi is simply the cover that provides protection for the internal parts of your distributor. It will hold the contact between the spark plug wires and the internal rotor. The cap will help to keep out any contaminants from getting into the distributor, which can cause problems with your vehicle's performance. The caps also send electrical currents to spark plugs, and it has prongs that spark plug wires attach to. A distributor cap needs to work efficiently to help your engine perform well. If you have a faulty distributor cap, there are several symptoms you might notice with your Mitsubishi. The engine might misfire, or the car might not start at all. There could also be excessive noise coming from the engine. Often, the check engine light will come on, as well, although this alone is not an indicator of a bad distributor cap.
