ok I'm driving home in my CRX, I have a B18a ('91) so I figured I'd just post in the Integra section. anyway I notice a squealing noise so I figure its the belt, I get home pop the hood and figure out its not the belt the distributor that's squealing, bad distributor barrings??? I figure I need a new distributor but I figured I'd check here first.

 

yup sounds to me like your barings are shot. If there is indeed a racket coming from the distributor then it's time for either a new housing and transfer all the guts over. Or if you can find a good deal on a new one, replace the whole thing. Happened on one of my da's. It was a better deal to buy a whole new distributor from a parts store than just a housing from honda. It's real easy to install too.

 

Better hurry and replace that sucker. Don't doddle or you'll end up on the side of the freeway like me

 

ok, thanks thats what I figured just thought I'd see what you guys had to say first.

 

yeah you need to hurry and replace it. If it seizes you could be in big trouble.

 

Some parts store online can sell you just the rod with the bearing on it. I had that problem and went to the junk yard and removed the rod for 5 and replaced it in the old distributor.

i know dude.. ive owned 5 integras and ive had to replace the distributor on 3 of them and one of them i had to do it twice... bummer..

 

i have the same problem with mine. but what id like to know is if there is a aftermarket dizzy out there that would be better for boost? like maybe an ajustable one. i havent really found one out there if anybody knows please let me know thanks

 

I hear distributer king has good prices and excellent products, much cheaper than OEM.
