Frequently asked questions

What is the distributor gear used for?

The distributor gear drives the distributor from the camshaft on the Rover V8 engine. It meshes with the camshaft gear and turns the distributor shaft to time the ignition spark. It also typically drives the oil pump on these engines.

Which engines and models does this distributor gear fit?

This distributor gear fits the Rover V8 petrol engine used in the Defender, Discovery 1, Discovery 2, Range Rover Classic and Range Rover P38. It's specific to the V8, so confirm your vehicle has the Rover V8 rather than a four-cylinder or diesel engine.

Why does a distributor gear fail on the Rover V8?

A distributor gear typically wears when the drive teeth erode, often from incorrect oil or a worn oil pump drive. Symptoms usually include ignition timing drift, rough running or metal debris in the oil. A stripped gear can stop the engine.

Is fitting a distributor gear a DIY job?

Fitting a distributor gear is usually a specialist job, because it sits inside the engine and affects ignition timing. The distributor typically has to come out and timing must be reset accurately afterwards. Experienced home mechanics can do it, but timing accuracy is critical.
