Gday. A few years ago I bit the bullet and bought a Chinese 22100-G5110 electronic distributor in my daily drive 120y with an A12. I have done over 100000km with it and its been no problem. Not bad for a $90 distributor. However the distributor cap is starting to wear out.

Can anyone tell me where to get a new cap? I can't find one anywhere. I've tried emailing the people who sell the distributors to no avail. I have checked ebay and done google searches. I don't want to buy a whole distributor just for a cap. Apparently its a clone of the Mitsubishi 22100-G5110 distributor but I can't figure out the part number for the cap. Any help would be appreciated!

Try a JP594 Fuelmiser cap
Suits an N12 Pulsar with Mitsubishi dizzy

Ah thankyou for that. I will get one and try it. I'll post back here the results. Its pretty cheap as well which is a bonus.

22100-G5110

This is from 1986-1991 C22 Nissan Vanette A15 engine

With a screw-down cap

Thanks for that. Yeah the china one has the screw down cap.

So an update on this saga. I purchased a GH 617 distributor cap with is also a JP594. It has both numbers on its packet. It doesn't fit. I have contacted a few sellers on ebay who are selling these distributors. No luck yet.

hmmm
A JP594 is a Bosch GH633
May be the same... but may pay to double check
Try also JP666

Can you post a photo of your cap?


Nissan 22100-G5110 distributor takes cap:
* 22162-78A10
Can buy from forklift suppliers, eBay, Amazon.com

But the knockoff distributor might not use the same cap

Okay good news. I took a gamble and purchased a YD141 distributor cap. Its a perfect fit. The downside is it was expensive because the closest one on ebay came from Germany. But still cheaper than buying a whole Chinese dizzy.

So thats it, a YD141 is the cap. Its exactly the same.

Also postage took a while and I was impatient. I got a Accuspark electronic ignition kit off ebay and put it in the original Hitachi dizzy. Its works well.

Thanks for the help chaps.

Good work. How did you come up with the number YD-141? That is for a 1989-1992 Daihatsu Charade 1.3. The cap we have locally here is a JD916
