I found this on craigslist...they want $200

89 Integra 5 Speed 124 K miles Cold Air ,It was runing Great untill I washed the engin I couldnt get the car to run It starts then dies I was told the ditributor was burned out it needs a new one .


does that sound about right...? would washing the engine cause the distributor to ''burn'' out if not done correctly?

and how easy/hard would it be to replace for someone with limited experience with cars...? sorry if these are stupid questions but i am desprately trying to get a car so I can get to work...and money is verry limited.

so should I even take the chance or could this possibly just be an easy fix..?
