Got a problem, I am putting a ZC in my CRX and the distributor plug won't fit, can you re-wire it?

The wiring harness was cut on the motor swap, and I was just wondering if there was a way to re-wire the distributor plug. Help me! Also the plug on the distributor doesnt match the one on the motor. The Plug on the ZC motor is circular and the plug on the distributor is square. What can i do about gettiing them to work together. Get a new distributor???

You need to get that plug of an Si wiring harness. I had to cut my square one out and attach a round on for the MPFI system. I got mine of a 90 Civic Si wiring harness that came with my SOHC ZC.

It's quite simple, good luck.

Dont cut the plug off you can re-pin it. It's a cleaner install.

you need the plugs from the zc wiring harness to do it without chopping the wires. http://thenew.gamesbbs.com/~dmoore/zc-phase3.htm and heres a better wiring diagram. http://www.thezcr.com/forums/a...=1137
i just spliced the wires, not as good looking but i didnt get the zc harness so....
