We stock a comprehensive range of ignition components for Lucas-type distributors, with 1000s of mainly British vehicle applications up to 1990. The complete range includes coils - with 6V and 12V, acorn and push-fit, standard and sports options; condensers – a wide selection with premium options from the Distributor Doctor range and exclusive products including recently remanufactured condenser plate, Lucas part number 409613, with many British car applications from 1939 to 1957; contact sets – over 30 types including high-quality sets manufactured in period style with original fibre heels; distributor caps – over 50 sorts, with difficult to find caps and premium options featuring high specification materials and brass inserts; rotor arms – over 30 kinds, with many premium options from the Distributor Doctor as well as newly remanufactured arms including original Lucas part numbers 404923, 403866 and 403865; brushes, bearings, bushes, driving dogs and cap clips – a comprehensive selection of service items necessary to properly rebuild your distributor, many remanufactured to their original specification in the UK.

To help you identify the correct parts for your distributor we have created the most complete ignition product search database available online. The search currently includes information on distributors and vehicle applications up to 1960, though in future will be expanded to include applications up to 1990. In each parts category, you can search by Lucas distributor number (marked on the distributor body), distributor type or vehicle Make, Model & Year, for original applications published by Lucas. When searching for a product e.g. a rotor arm, you will also be presented with the other ignition products used in the application that accompany the rotor arm. On occasion, there may be two options for a component suggested - where the distributor changed over the period of production. Please study the photographs of the parts and the item descriptions to confirm they match the parts you are seeking to replace. While every effort has been made to provide accurate search information, it is important to check all product information. If you require any assistance with your selection then please get in touch.

In addition to our extensive range of fans and tailor made fan kits for popular classics including selected Jaguars, MGs, Triumphs and Daimlers, we now offer a wider range of cooling system installation accessories such as universal brackets, flush mounts, fan feet, earthing and fitting kits.

We have also added a full range of electronic fan controllers - for 25 to 45mm diameter hose sizes - for POSITIVE EARTH systems, in response to increased demand for upgraded cooling systems for older vehicles. Modern traffic and the hotter engine temperatures associated with running on ethanol containing fuels such as E5 and now E10 often require improved engine cooling.

Our range of positive and negative earth fan controllers, fans, fan accessories and switches allow installation of tailored cooling systems offering adjustable, automatic operation as well as manual override. When wiring positive earth systems it is important to consider the condition of the entire electrical system, as the power output of older dynamo based systems available to drive modern fans will be lower than that from higher output positive earth, alternator powered systems.

We now offer a wide range of repair/rebuild kits and components for AC mechanical fuel pumps. The kits have 100s of vintage and classic vehicle applications from the 1930s into the 1970s, where AC offered highly efficient mechanical fuel pumps that were used by the majority of car and light commercial vehicle manufacturers. The list of components in each kit was created from records of the period and components have been remanufactured from materials specified to be compatible with ethanol-containing fuels, including E5 and E10.

To aid the selection of the correct kit to overhaul your fuel pump, we have compiled an application database of over 500 common classic vehicle applications and a full repair kit is available for most applications, though only a diaphragm or selected components in a few instances.

The ‘Help and Instructions’ section at the top of the Repair Kit and Repair Component product categories provides useful advice on dismantling, cleaning, refurbishing and re-assembling mechanical fuel pumps - as well as guidance on fuel pump, connection and engine pad gasket types, to help you identify your fuel pump and select the correct repair kit for your application if it is not listed in the search database.
