The Custom Re-manufactured Ignition Distributor Picture has Changed!

An ignition distributor is an electro-mechanical on-board computer that controls when and in which cylinder the ignition spark ignites the fuel in a gas or gasoline engine. When this electro-mechanical computer is not operating properly (due to wear, poor lubrication, corrosion, worn, or broken parts, etc.), your engine is not running properly or efficiently. You're using excessive amounts of fuel to power the machine or vehicle. In short, more gas is used to deliver less power and performance. "Inefficiency in Action"!

Engine manufacturers started replacing ignition distributors with "Engine Management Computers" 10 to 20 years ago (some more recently). Most ignition distributor manufacturers ceased making replacement parts shortly thereafter. Now the manufacturers of common expendable items such as caps, rotors, contacts (points), gears, shafts, leads, etc. have started phasing out inventories. This has placed custom re-manufacturing facilities at a disadvantage.

Buffalo Machine saw the "handwriting on the wall" and started collecting cores and available parts. We also began equipping to repair, manufacture, and stock replacement parts for use on our "Premier" re-manufactured ignition distributors. For this, we maintain a well equipped precision machine shop where many replacement and repair parts are routinely manufactured for the units we place back in service in the field. We also have a team available to search for hard to find distributor cores, and components.

Who is Buffalo Machine Works?

Buffalo Machine re-manufactures ignition distributors with or without: Centrifugal Advance Mechanisms, Vacuum Advance / Retard Modules, Mechanical Tachometer Drives, built in Governors, etc. Buffalo Machine specializes in doing "bench work" only. We are not a "garage" doing all things for all people. We do wonders when and where others have given up or failed on automobile restoration projects, agricultural equipment, trucks, fork lifts, industrial equipment, etc.

Our technology includes repair and manufacturing of replacement parts for the units we remanufacture. We maintain a complete precision machine shop as well as electronic distributor test machines. Trouble shooting difficult-to-pin-down problems, and, re-curving units to your specs are some of our other abilities. Another specialty includes conversion of contact (points) type distributors to electronic distributors.

We produce units that are better than the original!
