Tough to tell but it looks like an 88-91 civic/crx si distributor.

It is a distributor with MPFI, as to which obd series it is, im not sure. I am 100% sure that it is NOT a dpfi distributor. It appears to be the '88-'91 Hf or Si distributor, but I'm not so sure.

On one of the arms that hold the distributor to the head, there should be a number on it. For example TD-42U. THATS AND EXAMPLE. Depending on what that number reads, we will be able to tell you exactly what that distributor is from.

i *think* that is a td-02u or td-22u. either way it looks like the distributor you would need for an mpfi swap. the last distibutor i bought had a sticker, so it might not be stamped anywhere. but the honda factory ones i think are stamped into the metal.

its a MPFI. Look at the round plug, the DPFI has a rectagle plug and the plug is smaller since it is missing 2 wires that you must add when doing the conversion.

You can either put the square DX plug on it,
Or get the Si style engine harness plug and
put it on your DX engine harness..

Make sure the round plug has seven wires..
[If it only has five it is a DX..]

For the sake of argument,
Just because it has a round plug does not confirm
it is a MPFI distributor because this is a DPFI distributor
right here:


Also the model number should be stamped here:

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by 88DXCRX &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">
Also the model number should be stamped here:

</TD></TR></TABLE>

That is what I was refering to in my post, I forgot if it is ingraved or printed. If you can read you should be able to see it and read it on one of the arms.

I do see 7 wires coming from the plug, so I am 100% that it is some kind of mpfi distributor.

It is really no problem,
take a look at this pic:

With the exception of the two blue wires on the left,
The five wires are in the same configuration in the dx plug

Compair the two and label them or draw a diagram to go on..

I used the round plug instead of the square one
This is a DX distributor wired into an Si plug:

If you look at your DX distributor,
the wires will be arranged in the
same configuration in the square plug

Tan may equal orange or peach in your case..Hope this helps..
