This distributor is in the 1968 to 1971 911E Porsche. The 911E used mechanical fuel injection or MFI. The total advance at the engine is 20 to 35°. This distributor uses mechanical advance only.
The 911E also runs a three-pin CDI, Capacitor Discharge Ignition, and you should see solid core unshielded wires coming out of this distributor. If you look in your 911E engine and find a 0231.159.007, do not worry the only difference between the E and S distributors is the rev limiting rotor.
Porsche Cross-Reference Number
For the 0231-159-006 Porsche uses the part number 901.602.027.00. And if it is a rebuilt unit, the number refects this, 901.602.027.X. Many of these cars may have had the MFI removed and carburetors added. Taking off the original fuel system is a backward step. The distributor is at its best when running original components!
