What is the difference between an obd2 or obd1 distrubutor? How do you find out which one you need?

Also is there a difference between the different b-series motors available?

 

nothing internally, but the plugs are different, they have the same amount of wires, but the obd2 has one plug and the ond1 has 2

if you can de-pin and re-pin, you can make the obd2 conector fit onto an obd1 car

 

anyone have pics of the connectors?

 

not at this moment, but i know it works because im running a 99 civic si distributor on my obd1 gsr swap in my Da

 

what kind is this?



the wiring harness is obd2, and the ecu is a p73 jdm itr obd2 ecu.

 

thats obd1


this is obd2

 

thank you sir.

i figure it might be easier/cheaper to get that distributor instead of replacing the coil, ignitor, cap and rotor.

 

what exactly is wrong with your distributor

 

coil and icm, rotor is stuck the only way i can take it off is to break it, and the cap is old has a crack where the bolt goes.

figure id just buy a whole new distributor and swap it out.

just be carefull and you can pry the cap rotor button off
