Rotor arms can fail due to:
Carbon tracking or burning from high voltage arcing
Excessive wear of the conductive tip
Cracking or distortion of the rotor body due to heat or vibration
Poor-quality materials that break down prematurely
Moisture ingress, leading to corrosion and weak spark delivery
Misfires across one or more cylinders
Difficulty starting, especially in damp conditions
Loss of power or hesitation under load
Engine stalling at idle or while driving
Visible damage such as cracks, burning, or erosion on inspection
Inspect the distributor shaft and cap before fitting — worn shafts can cause uneven rotor wear
Ensure the rotor is the correct length and profile for the application
Avoid touching the conductive tip with bare hands to prevent contamination
Replace the rotor arm and cap together for best results
Check ignition timing after installation if specified by the manufacturer
