Contact Set for the ignition distributor of the 3.5L V8 petrol engine. The contact breaker points open and close the primary circuit to the ignition coil, timing the spark delivered to each cylinder.

This is the non-sliding (fixed) contact set, distinct from the sliding-contact type. It mounts on the distributor baseplate and works alongside the condenser, which suppresses arcing across the points as they open.

Frequently asked questions

What is the RTC6623 contact set used for?

The RTC6623 contact set is the contact breaker for the 3.5-litre V8 petrol distributor, opening and closing the primary circuit to the ignition coil to time the spark. It's the non-sliding (fixed) type that mounts on the distributor baseplate.

What's the difference between the non-sliding and sliding contact set?

The non-sliding (fixed) contact set mounts directly to the distributor baseplate, unlike the sliding-contact type used in other Lucas distributors. The two aren't interchangeable, so confirm your V8 distributor takes fixed contacts before ordering.

Which Land Rovers does this V8 contact set fit?

It fits the 3.5 V8 petrol on Land Rover Series 3 (Stage 1), Defender V8 carburettor models, and Range Rover Classic 1971 to 1986 V8 carb. This is the Lucas non-sliding contact set for that distributor.

What are the signs the V8 contact points need replacing?

Worn or pitted contact points typically cause V8 misfire, uneven idle and hard starting. The condenser suppresses arcing across the points as they open, so it's usually renewed at the same time for clean ignition.
