Can anyone point me in the direction of a reliable distributor supplier?
The hand book for my Hillman Minx series lllb says I need a Lucas DM4P2
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated - the original is a wreck - not even servicable |

Have you tried the Distributor Doctor - he may be able to suggest an alternative if he cannot fix it _________________ Rover P2

Are you sure it's not a Lucas DM2P4? If so a very common unit fitted to loads of vehicles.

PS
Just looked it up, it is a DM2P4 Lucas part number 40492A/B |

Sent it off in May - just found out it will take 8/9 weeks.
Any suggestions where I can get a replacement? going to miss all the local shows!!
Is there an alternative to the DM2p4? |

had the same problem a week or so ago
speak with accuspark
http://www.accuspark.co.uk/index.html
They list one suitable for the minx.
I fitted one of their distributors a couple of weeks ago following ignition failure, Delivered next day for £58 (complete distributor). Took about 10 mins to set up and get running perfect, to be fair, best £58 spent on the car so far.
