k so my vss went out and i dont know much about which parts to buy when stuff breaks... so i have a 92 civic with a b16 w/ the hydro tranny. should be obd-i. Now when i go to like a auto store which car make/model do i say its for? because when i asked for a vss for a del sol they were like they dont make one or some **** (3 diff auto stores said that) then i just asked so it can fit a b16a3 (which someone said) and they were like lalala ::typeing:: negative soooo which car would have the same vss as my current? thanks a bunch. for the record i tryed to ask for the umm 95 del sol vtec and they said dont have one. i also went to 3 different junk yards and couldnt find any 92+ hondas :-/ all were like 80s or the ones i did find in the 90s they were the cable vss

how do i know if its a y21 tranny? is there any way to tell off the serial or vin? or do i gotta look for something inperticular

should be the same VSS for all b-series hydro trannies. And that is an OEM, I am pretty sure, so the auto parts places wont have them. Keep trying junkyards, or look online for a used one.

i can order it from a auto store but i need to know what make/model the car is cuz when i ask for a vss for a b16 or a b16a3 or say "any b series vss" they are like ::scrach head:: huh?

its "B16A" to the ones who say just ask for a b16 speed sensor .. "What year and model of the car i cant look it up till i get that" :-/ i tryed... lol now i have no clu what year/model to get it for cuz they said a 92 Civic CX speed sensor is the same as the one that i had but on the printout there totaly different looking. soooo anyone who has had this problem for a "B16A" engine pls let me know what sensor u bought

Just go order one for a DOHC del sol, a 99-00 SI, any integra, all of them will work man. I have thrown OBD2 motors into OBD1 harnesses and never had a problem with the VSS not converting year to year in the wiring harness.

I think any B16 will work. I just saw a used one on ebay yesterday for $40 shipped.
