Default OBD2 to OBD1 distributor

My 94 Integra RS distributor it toast. I can get a OBD2, 2000 B20Z distributor for next to nothing.

Can I cut the clips and solder the wires back together, (so the OBD2 distributor has an OBD1 clip) or are there more/less wires that would make this impossible?

Thanks in advance guys.

You can use the OBD2 distributor just fine. You can cut/splice the wires or remove the pins from the OBD2 connector and put them in an OBD1 connnector.

The 2 OBD2 IGN wires on that go to the 2-pin OBD1 connector have different size pins. They are the solid blue and black/yellow wires.

OK cool.

What about the crank sensor? I've heard mine has it in the distributor, but it's not in the OBD2 distributors.

True?

The crankshaft fluctuation sensor (CKF) is mounted near the crankshaft. Not in the distributor.

OBD1 cars don't have a CKF. OBD2 cars do.
