Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between the 3040376 and 3040379 point sets?
A: Both are point sets for gasoline-powered forklift ignition systems. Verify your exact engine model to determine which SKU applies. They may fit different distributor types or mounting configurations.
Q: Which forklift engine types use the 3040379 point set?
A: The 3040379 point set fits specific gasoline engine configurations in Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and Yale forklifts. Check the engine block casting date or model year on your equipment.
Q: How do I know if I need the 3040379 instead of the 3040376?
A: Consult your forklift service manual for the correct point set SKU. The manual lists SKU by engine type and year. Ordering the wrong part will cause mechanical fitment issues.
Q: What is the service life of the 3040379 point set?
A: The 3040379 typically lasts 1500 to 3000 operating hours. Life depends on condenser condition, breaker arm spring tension, and point gap maintenance. Always replace the condenser simultaneously.
Q: Can I substitute the 3040379 for the 3040376 point set?
A: No. These are designed for different distributor types. Using the wrong part causes poor spark timing, misfiring, and engine stalling. Use only the SKU specified for your engine.
