Discussion:
5R engine, need distributor!

Hello,

I apologize, but this is the only place I can think of to post this. I have an old Toyota forklift. A friend has it, actually, it was donated to him, and almost nothing is known about it.

Someone took the distributor apart and lost the pieces to it.

I noticed it has a red sticker that says "5r", I thought "15R" or "25R", but it seems like it is just a 5R, 1.7L.

I really need some help on this one, this forklift is for a nonprofit mens ranch. I tried looking up the numbers on the distributor but I came up with nothing. Does anyone know anything about this motor? I really need the distributor for it.Thanks!!

I might have one of those distributors used.
