I believe the blue wire is on the inside of the OBD2B distributor, and you just tap into it. Damn, where's 94EG8 with the answer?

Take the distributor cap and rotor off,remove the plastic cover so you can see the igniter,there will be one empty terminal, run a wire from here to the distributor plug.

thank you very much guys. and for the person going form obd2a to obd2b and if im correct u have a 99-00 civic you can just leave the wire alone don't have to hook it up to anything because your model year gets the tach from the ecu not the distributor. just search obd2b distributor and you'll find it. once again thanks guys
