How does a distributor work in an engine?
The distributor has a shaft that gets spun by the camshaft. That moves other distributor parts that cause the ignition coil to pulse, and sends the electricity down each spark plug wire in order. The power travels down the spark plug wires to the spark plugs and causes sparks. The sparks ignite the fuel and air in the engine cylinders.
