looks the same as what honda has listed:

I dunno, I remember hearing a long time ago that there was a sensor added in 90 or 91 in the distributor... but don't take that as the gospel.. I'll probably get flamed for saying it and not knowing all the info

they show the same picture for all of the distributors - don't go by the picture - just order one for 90 CRX DX and you will get the right one

If you have a DX and it's stock, it has DPFI, instead of MPFI. The distributor is different and it is very likely the distributor you are looking at is the one for the MPFI, which does have a different shape plug. They are not the same and they are not interchangable.

I got one from Distributor King, for a DPFI and it seems to be well built, with improvements to address the heat issue which kills the stock unit's. It comes with a lifetime warranty, so it seemed to me that it was worth not having to fool with it again.

so I just bought one of them distributers from that dk guy on ebay. But I have one question, on the page it says that the vin # on it is TD01U and my distributer says TC07A, will it matter that much? cuz it looks like it will work but I just want to make sure. thanks for all the help.

Shoot him a question with your TC07A and he will tell you which one. That is what I did. That one will not work for you, the TD___
