Buying Ignition Parts for a 1933 Hudson Pacemaker Major

On this vehicle, the ignition system delivers spark at the right moment — plugs, coils, wires, distributors and ignition modules.

  • Match the engine first. Every ignition part here is engine-specific; each row shows which engine(s) it fits.
  • Read the notes on each row for position, trim and spec qualifiers before you order.
  • Where labor overlaps, replace plugs and wires (or coil boots) as a set — one weak cylinder makes the whole set feel bad.
  • Cross-reference the manufacturer part number against your old part or a service-manual listing.

What do the market flags (US, CA, MX) on each part mean?
