89-90 1.6L Sidekick distributor vacuum advance module

[pyolet]

Noobie here. My vacuum advance module leaks. Anyone know of a source for a new module without having to pop for a reman distributor? i.e. will the module from a 1.3L Samurai or 91+ dizzy fit/function? Thanx in advance. Woody.

good question.
i think , aftermarket parts here are hard
the sammi uses a different p/n 86-89 (90 is EFI) 33230-80061
but the sidekick p/n is
33230-60A20 and a40 with vin K4104052 K = 1989 so vin serial mid year changed at 410xxx serial.
suz, wants $75

i searched by p/n, year, dont matter , it just looks at p/n for searching.

Thanks for the speedy reply and great info. Not sure how I missed seeing that on SuzukiParts site during my search, but they had 'em in stock and one is on it's way. Thanks again. Woody

Newbie Here  I am looking for a vacuum advance for a 1989 Sidekick  1.6  VIN JS4TA01CK4107276 Part # 33230-60A40 I have tried all avenues but with no success. Suzukicarparts.com said it is discontinued.  One site shared that Standard Motor Parts #VC446 might fit from O'Reilly's @$121 ????  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

ok 1.6L not 1.3L sure.
just the vacuum advance, only? now that is a tall order. but
the distribs  are sold.  
well suzuki ended sales on most of these for sure  32 years old
first place to look, besides  just using google.
is rockauto.com if for nor other reason to see all maker of this new or refurbished, just the distributor by cardone below.



there is CARDON one ,  refurb top maker in uSA<  and their catalog. ecat shows this whole distrib  only  Part # 31-524
https://www.cardone.com/catalog/engine/i...istributor
the do not sell direct, ever, only at stores.



and SMP


the SMP catalogs are online to read, did you do that first, for vc446? , well is missing in ecat.

lets do SMP , first , and ecat there show no hits for vac advance nor the whole thing distrib.

the ecat dropped it out of the cat.
but is here.

https://ecatalog.smpcorp.com/STD/#/vehic...446?type=s

clearly there. direct searched, by me now.


google finds 1store  selling it for 1/2 that crazy price.

https://www.summitracing.com/parts/smp-vc446

by special order only,  (32 years old well parts are super hard to find and few left running,)


ebay has clones there, not sure if any good,,, expensive $50 clones.

60A20- is the early distb housing

60a40 is later, at vin code.  k4106~ serial up as yours was new.  so you get that right,

SMP is  a top brand , not a clone  but engineer exact.
