okay. So if I buy a new distributor the coil is included. Yeah pretty sure mine went out, car will crank but won't roll over. Changed plugs fuel filter and battery so dizzy is next step

thanks

Some new distributors don't include coil, you can just buy a coil and all you need to change it is a phillips head screw driver. Have you checked to see if it is firing?

You can get a distributor from the distributor king off Ebay with a lifetime warrenty for around 150.00, don't buy it from Honda. I run DK distributors on all my cars when the old ones die, never had a problem with them.
