1971-79 + 009 Ignition Points - Bosch

High quality Bosch ignition contact points, manufactured to OEM standards for reliable performance and long service life. Designed for use on selected aircooled Volkswagen models and engines fitted with a 111 905 205L distributor or aftermarket 009 distributor.

These points are a critical part of the traditional ignition system, opening and closing as the distributor cam rotates to trigger the ignition coil and generate the spark at the plugs. Bosch points are known for their precise contact surfaces and consistent switching, helping maintain accurate ignition timing, smooth engine running, and dependable starting.

Worn or low-quality points can lead to weak spark, misfiring, hesitation, and rough idle. Replacing them with Bosch points ensures a clean electrical connection and reduces contact burning, helping to maintain consistent ignition performance. Points should be set to a 0.4mm / 0.016″ gap during installation, and ignition timing should always be checked afterwards.

These points fit distributor model 111 905 205L and also suit 009 distributors. As many vehicles may have had distributor changes over time, always confirm fitment by checking the distributor number fitted.
