Distributor Cap and Rotor

Hello all,
I am going to replace my distributor cap and rotor on my 96 850R... I was going to buy parts from FCP Groton and noticed that they carried a "no-name" brand. I called them up and they said that they were of good quality similar to Bosch and that they have had no complaints. Does anyone have any experience with this? It is about a $15 savings to go with the aftermarket brand.
I also recently cleaned out my throttle body and MAF sensor, they really were not dirty at all, like I had seen in other photos online, which is nice to know. Also greasd up the steering stops and now when I turn the wheel the noise is gone! Would not have been able to do it all without this site!

Thanks,
volvrow

FCP groton is a very good supplier..not only do they stand behind the products ..but if your not satisfied they will make the right adjustment.

Just make sure you get the black sleeve that goes on the distributor cap or take it off your old one.

Happy repairs.. forever

FCP is very good and they do stand behind their products. I've had my trunk struts go bad in less than a week, and they replaced them immediately after notifying them.

As for the cap and rotor, I went with Bosch, and believe me these Bosch parts are built to last... very heavy durable construction.
