I have a EG with a D15Z1 and my distributor so, I bought one on craigslist off a D16y8 and only two of the bolts line up correctly, but it still goes in. And when I start the car its not igniting all the cylinders. Could this be from the distributor or is my timing just really off? If it is from the distributor I was thinking about taking out the internals of the old distributor and replace it with the new one in the old housing so it can bolt right up, would this work?

Help me out! I need this fixed ASAP.


Out of line bolt

 

is it a d15z1 complete motor or a d15z1 block with y8 head?

 

Compared the housings and make sure the bolt holes line up. I personally dont think the y8 distributor bolts up to that head perfectly.

 

i'm confused. is your car wired for an obd2 distributor?

 

I was just getting ready to say that also Kyden

 

d15z1 complete, only a y8 dizzy



Slightly different

 

I converted the harness from obd2a to obd1 on the dizzy

 

You can see the difference in bolt patterns in the pictures. It wont bolt up all the way perfectly. And is your car wired for an obd2 distributor? is it all still obd1 wiring?

 

I used the harness from the obd1 distributor and wired it to obd2 distributor
