NEW FOR THE FALL 2021....REVERSE ROTATION PERTRONIX DISTRIBUTORS!!!
MADE IN THE USA!
Pertronix Flame Thrower II Complete Billet Marine Distributor with Ignitor II Electronic Ignition
1/1/2026 Now Shipping with EPOXY FILLED Flamethrower Ignition Coil!!
Replacement Marine (Marine Approved SAE J1171) Complete Distributor for the Ford 351W REVERSE ROTATION Marine RIGHT Hand Rotation (Typically found on older Correct Crafts)
Ski Boats with 70's, 80's, 90's Commander, PCM, Indmar Ford 351W engines
with Prestolite, or Mallory distributors all have mechanical advance
(points or elect. ign) and the small springs that control the advance
mechanism eventually wear out, break, or simply rust and break. These
springs are no longer available, replacing with "similar" springs
may result in too much advance or too little advance. There are other
manufacturers making replacement distributors but we have found this one
to be the best value for the money.
If your engine is suddenly backfiring and won't accelerate you will
need to place a timing light on the engine and see if the timing mark
moves (advances) as the rpm increases, if it stays in place and does not
advance with increased RPM your distributor is NOT advancing, further
investigation will most likely reveal broken advance springs below the
points base plate. Given the hours that most of the these engines now
have on them the bearings are also going to be worn so we recommend simply replacing the whole distributor.
DOES NOT FIT FORD 289/302 ENGINES!!!! The 302 has a slightly smaller hole (1.500") the 351 is approx. 1.560" hole
Ignition Coil use: MET-0040 4/22/21 Now INCLUDED with Distributor purchase
Plug Wire Set use: MET-0065
BEWARE of reverse gears on the aftermarket that are only drilled half-way, our engines need the drive gear roll pin through the entire gear/shaft!!!

So far so good. I had bought the DUI distributor, but there posed to be a lot of possible issues so after a couple e mails to another company they returned . It was nice to have this product as a plug in play like it should be. My old prestolite was really worn, and it was a nice replacement. Also we ran new ignition wire back to it. Over the winter or next spring we’re going to look at re do the dash. Been out once since my purchase, ran better than ever for a 1979 ski Nautique. Hope to get a couple more rides as we’re bout to winterize in a couple weeks, thanks again. Also thank you for the sticker with shipment. The other supplier I’d been ordering from never did that, so thanks, keep up good work
