I was replacing my distributor and took a nap after some work and when i woke up i find out my sister threw away the distributor so i have no idea what type will fit my car. It's a 1993 4DR Sedan Honda civic DX with a 1.5L Non-Vtech

is she a moron?

and it only takes like 15 mins to change the distributer, did u really need a nap in between taking it off and putting another back on?

sorry for no help, but i found this post funny

haha she's 12 give her a break! and no i was cleaning the car and changing the spark plugs along w/the spark plugs wires then had a problem and wanted to change the distributor so i took it out to get the number n buy it then put the new one in but i was tired so went to take a nap. Now i have no idea which one to buy. There are two distributors that fit.
Honda Civic DX Distributor TD-42U 1992 1993 1994 1995
Honda 92-95 Civic ( 3dr.,4DR), 93-95 Coupe ( DX ), Del Sol ( 1.5) TD-41U

And I know that one spins one way and the other one spins the other way around. So if i buy the wrong one then ill get stuck with it.

They both spin the same way. Any non-vtec distributor from 92-95 is what you want. Besides, all of the cars you just listed have the same motor.

vtec distributors spin the other way then?

No, the only difference with vtec distributors is that the legs to bolt it onto the head are in different places. Lots of people cut a leg off of LS distributors to work with b16/b18c motors.

I know K series motors spin the opposite of honda's other stuff, but I'm pretty sure those are the only ones. B, C, D, F, and H series motors all spin the same. I'm not sure about the new R series engines ('06 non-si civics).

bought the TD42U and my car's REALLY slow.
Seller won't give me back my money for it's used w/oil and bolt marks on it.
THANKS FOR THE TIP. At least my SOB car started unlike before. Oh well, i guess ill have to live w/a slow @$$ car whos top speed going uphill is 20mph even when i floor it down(when i've completely stopped and start from 0, not when im in constant speed).

when does this tr ial end? haha and oh yeah, why does my car hiss. It's a weird sound. Before it used to purr now it's a hissing sound, like a snake.
