Engineered for Holden VN, VG and VP Commodore V8 models with early EFI (Electronic Fuel Injection), the Distributor Pickup is a precision internal Hall Effect sensor assembly designed to restore accurate engine timing and injection control. Serving as a critical input for the vehicle’s ECU, this component monitors distributor shaft rotation to ensure precise spark delivery and injector timing — essential for smooth performance and reliable operation.
Key Features
Hall Effect Sensor Assembly: Electronic trigger system that detects distributor shaft position and sends a signal to the ECU for accurate ignition and fuel injection timing.
Engine Position Sensor Function: Acts as the “eyes” of the ECU by monitoring shaft rotation, determining spark timing, controlling injector pulse timing and supporting smooth engine operation.
Resolves Common Intermittent Stalling Issues: A failing Hall Effect sensor is the leading cause of sudden engine cut-out, no-start conditions when hot or restarting only after the engine cools
Complete Kit Supplied: Includes base plate assembly, sensor module with 3-pin connector, and correct plastic connector housing
Direct Internal Replacement: Designed to fit within the factory distributor assembly without modification.
Maintain reliable EFI performance in your Holden with the Distributor Pickup — a critical ignition and injection timing component designed to eliminate common stalling faults and restore consistent engine operation.
