So I have a 1994 Accord LX. I'm in the process of swapping an H22A in and as I compared the wiring, I noticed that my F22B's distributor (external coil) wiring has 8 wires coming out of it going into a canon plug. My H22A's distributor (internal coil) has 7 wires coming out of it into a plug...

How do I approach this situation...

Thanks to everyone who has and will contribute to my previous and future threads. i greatly appreciate it. gaydm.accord has been most helpful. just wanted to point that out

<U>EDIT</U>: I forgot to mention that i see the extra wire is solid GREEN

 

5:05am and still looking...

 

Ok what they did on my swap was take the distributor out of my f22a and the ex coil and used it in my h22a the f22a is obd1 so is the h22a so u need the obd1 setup

 

no offense dude, but you don't even know what kind of engine you have... I don't really trust your answer... anyone else!?

 

no one knows

i think the answer you're looking for is in the 1st post 5-6 headings down.

 

Internal/External Coil Issues
If your car came equiped with an internal coil then the jdm h22 distributor will plug right in no problem. However, if your car had external coil then you will have to modify one plug. The plug you will need to modify is the plug that went to the stock coil. There are is a yellow and a yellow/black wire, splice those 2 wire together. The green wire is useless, dont worry about it.

OK, is this what the man is talking about?...

 

and also...

 

no problem see i had a shop get my engine and when your dealing with a shop you try to find out what you can about what you buy i didn't know how to tell if it was a jdm h22a or a U.S h22a1 but i do know F22b2 is obd2 and u don't have to trust this answer that if the h22a is up to the year 1995 it is obd1 that's ok don't trust it

 

the gren wire is the signal to the coil. your h22a distirbutor doesnt have that cuase its going straight to the coil inside the distirbtuor.
