What is a Distributor Vaccum Cell?
The vacuum advance is an ignition control mechanism built into some distributors and is commonly found in older vehicles and classic cars. Essentially, it adjusts the timing by adding advance while the vehicle is running at part throttle, which helps to increase fuel mileage and economy. It is made up of a vacuum canister or cell, a linkage, and an advance plate, which is secured to a trigger in the distributor.
