Alternate part Numbers:

12G2140 

Cooper"S" 23D distributor, no vacuum  unit
It works with many models and can be found in some early Hillman vehicles, pre-1974 4 Cylinder Land Rovers, all models of 4 Cylinder MGA and others. 

This is NOT THE ORIGINAL LUCAS ITEM as the original company and tooling no longer exist but is a new copy of the 40819 to work better with modern day fuels. It does have an original type baseplate with a post but NOT the 32ounce contact set as per the original 40819 distributor, but as many people may make the improvement to contactless ignition this is the perfect looking copy.See 12G2140MS for Negative earth only electronic type.


This unit is fitted with quick-fit points the post may need slightly reducing in size to accept the 2 piece 32 ounce points GCS3101.

All fitted with the better Red rotor arm upgrade.
Fitted all Cooper S models but MK3 "S" were fitted with 41033-23D type--(Note:25d type distributors have a Vac unit.)

The Distributor must be Lubricated Prior to use.

This distributor has more advance curve similar to the 41033 (Mk3 "S") which was better for acceleration and economy.

Also fitted to in line engine 1275 Sprite and Midget the 40819 is 7 degrees btdc static and 22 degrees @1200rpm dynamic timing--centrifugal advance in degrees @rpm was 0-3 @600/--6-12@1000/-- 11-15@2,000/--22-26@5,200/
