It's the pin that connects the distributor to the distributor cap...it looks like a little peice of plastic, maybe an inch long

if your talking about the little plastic rotor with a copper t on the end and spins around in the Distributor cap, it pops off the distributor and is like $11.00 at napa auto parts. i replaced mine when i replaced my distributor and is easy to put on. just take the rotor up to a parts store so you get the right one.

Nope, it's not the rotor, it's the part that the rotor snaps into. You know the little plastic pin that the distibutor cap connects to? THat's what i broke
