Default Anyone using an OBD1 Ignitor in a OBD0 dizzy?

EDIT: For anyone interested, or for future Search info...the OBD1 Ignitor works perfectly fine in the OBD0 Distro. I used a 95 GSR ignitor into my A6 distro...works great!

Well for one...

You did a OBD0-OBD1 conversion right?

Well, make sure your distro is a OBD1. The OBD0 has a different amount of points for the pick ups, and will not work properlly. I'm almost sure thats your problem.

BUT...I wanna know if I can run an OBD1 Ignitor in my OBD0 setup...

BUMP FOR ANYONE???

It should work fine. I've used ignitors out of OBD2 distributors in OBD0 distributors with no problems. I'd have to say an OBD1 ignitor will work the same.

If you were talking to me it is an OBD-1 Dizzy. Apparently it is off an integra LS or it is some sort of hybrid dizzy that locash racing made.
