Default Distributor Coupling???

Hey, guys,

I'm replacing my distributor and I was asked by a parts manufacturer if I needed the distr. w/ the small or large "coupling"... I'd never heard of that before (thought it was just a direct replacement). I have a 2000 ITR. Anyone know which one I need or what this piece is?

never heard of coupling.

the b16 and GSR distributers do have different size caps, but i wouldnt call that a coupling.

and if you're getting a complete Dizzy, you can get either one. just make sure it has the same feet spacing and single grey plug as yours

obd2a has a small 8 pin clip and obd2b has a larger 9 pin. I assume thats what hes talking about.

So is it the small or large one that I need (for a 2000 ITR)?

maybe they're confused between OBD2A and OBD2B?
