im suspecting my ignitor (icm) is dead in my 99 si b16a2, because ive changed out cap, rotors, wires, plugs, and coil. my buddy has a spare 94 gsr b18c1 dizzy and want to know if the ignitor from the b18c1 dizzy will fit into the b16.
ive searched the archives and found that there is conflicting results on this. some say all b series ignitors are interchangable. if this is so, then, why do honda and acura have different ignitor part numbers for the 94-01 gsrs, 94-01 ls/gs/rs, and 99-00 civic si?

my research shows that honda has the same ignitor parts for all 96-00 civics (including the 99-00 b16 civic si). so, if assuming b series teg ignitors can fit and run in a b16 99-00 civic si, then, with the above research, the conclusion would be that all 92-00 civics and all 94-01 teg ignitors should be compatible. is this correct?

has anyone ever tried putting a gsr ignitor into a 99-00 b16 dizzy?

PS: FYI, i do know for certain that all 94-01 tegs and 92-00 civics have the same part numbers for the coil.

It will fit

 

Pretty sure it would be fine.

The part number being different would make sense though,
Acura is quite different from Honda when you goto a dealer.

 

it should fit im using a obd1 ls ignitor in a obd2 b16 dizzy
