Default distributor b18c jdm and usdm si/d16y8 harness

i have a jdm b18c engine with orginal distributor, and a usdm si/d16y8 engine harness.

i just found out that the harness plug for the distributor doesnt match. did the ebay guy gave me a wrong engine harness? he said it was off from civic ex manual. si and y8 should have the same distributor plug, dont they?


here is a pic of the plug.. explain please?

From what i recall, thos is a common issue, but easy to fix. You have 2 options.....

- buy a distributor plug adaptor

- cut a pigtail from an integra or 99-00 civic Si engine harness from a junkyard and swap it to your original harness
