Distributor Problems.....engine:d15b vtec

Hi, im Joe, new to the forums but not to the site...
my problem:
i have a 96 civic 4door dx i swapped in a obd1 d15b vtec in because of a blown engine...(i still need a p28 ecu and vtec seliniod and conversion harness but thats not the problem) i got an obd1 distributor and wired it up according to the wiring diagram for the distributor...but for some reason there is no juice...it ran before with a rigged-up obd2 distributor... does this mean i need a new distributor? if so, whats a better bet? OBD1 or OBD2 distributor? should i just drill custom holes for the OBD2 distributor to fit? thanks in advance

- Joe

Just completely gut the OBD-2 distributor and install those components in the OBD-1 unit.

Do this because you fucked up your wiring. Put it back to where it was before you touch it, gut the internals of the dist and swap them over.
