Distributor Question
My buddy told me that an advance auto part distributor would be okay for my del sol, but i got other friends that told me to go buy the honda oem part, because they said they had issues w/ the one from advance. Any recommendations? Thanks.

Re: Distributor Question
Looking back, if I didn't have such a good relationship with our local Advance Auto, I would either look for a good used oem part, or just pay the high $ amount for an oem one. Nonetheless, honda ignition systems (oem or not) are the weak point of our cars.

Re: Distributor Question
There's never anything wrong with going OEM. When in doubt, go OEM IMO.Whenever I do maintenance on my car, I always try to buy OEM. If it's something that's cheaper elsewhere that I know will work just as well (ie - brake pads, rotors, bulbs, etc.), I'll buy elsewhere.
I have 216k miles on my stock dizzy on my d16y8 and never had a problem. Original o-ring too. It just started going bad within the past 5k. Already ordered a Honda one .

Re: Distributor Question
actually now that i think about it..ive bought both..re manufactured for my civic and a new one for my moms car..and still no problems so far...but dont go by what people say sometimes or so called rumors..there is a chance they come defective already but in that case they have warranty so take it back if defective and get a new one.
