1989 F20? What car is that from?

 

i'm pretty sure its from an accord... i dunno... i'm pretty unfamiliar with the engine codes for them though... i know my ef's, its for a friends ex which has the f22... heres the whole story... this car is getting power to the dizzy... coil is good ignitor is good... cap, rotor and wires are good... but yet its not getting spark at all... its got me plum confused... especailly since the ignitor is getting power! i wanna try a diff dizzy in it and the only one in the local yards is one for a 2.0 engine...

 

Its an A20A4/6

 

ahhh thanks for clearing that up... learn something new every day... and judging by the engine code thats a big hell no on interchangeability <-my big word for the day

 

Actually, its A20A3, I just remembered.

 

yeah... so i guess i can scratch that plan off though... damnit i want to get this accord out of my yard

 

All you need is an F22 distributor?

 

i *think* but i want something i can return if it not the prob

 

Go to AutoZone or Strauss or whatever. Its like $80 or something. If it doesnt work, return it. Simple as that. You can also find used and new ones on ebay.

 

heh i looked at advanced... its 230! with no returns b/c its an electrical component

 

Really? LOL. I dont know how I got mine replaced for like $90 then. Then try ebay.

 

heh gonna have to...

 

These might work:

what the hell is a dizzy????????

 

No problem. Thats what we're all here for.

I figured a dizzy is a distributor.

 

My mom's '89 has an F20 of some sort.

 

??? ???

 

k thanks what i thought but i wasnt quite sure of it

 

yeah dizzy... distributer all the same... well at least in my mind heh
