Description

for Citroen ID, DS

123\DS-A 123\DS-A-V is a distributor, specifically targeted for the Citroen ID/DS. It contains all the curves for carbureted ID/DS-engines as originally specified by Citroen, for cars 1962 and earlier

With a switch you can easily choose the advance-curve that was specified for your engine.

It comes with an angled distributor-cap, for easy access to the sparkplug-leads.
Might you prefer un upright cap, please specify a '123\DS-R-V

For ID's until 2/1964 Citroen used a distributor with vacuum-advance. To replace this you should order a '123\DS-R-V'.

ID-19B's from 9-'66 until 9-'68 with 'DV'-engine , and DS19A / DS19MA & ID19FA with 'DY'-engine from '65 to '68 require a different fixation. For these cars we offer a '123\DV-R' with a special mounting bracket.
