Does anybody know how I can tell if I have the right distributor? I'm using my stock harness and I had to buy a distributor (motor didn't come with one). Does the TD# determine what motor it's for? The one I got is a TD74U.

The plugs don't match, not even with the stock LS harness, and the dizzy has 9 wires, both harness plugs only have 8.

 

I meant the distributor has 8 wires, harnesses have 9. sorry

 

is the ls dizzy a single plug or two plug

 

single

 

bump

 

btw, the motor is not in yet so I don't have any other distributors to compare it to.

 

I have a 96 integra distributor on mine, and it plugs in to the 97 dx harness, it fires up, but... runs like crap.... i dunno if it's the distributor or not though, but it plugs in

 

well then I guess that means I was sent the wrong distributor

 

does anybody have a pic of a 96 dizzy plug? The one I was sent was supposed to be from a 99 ls. Are the plugs different somehow?

 

if the dizzy's from a 97 ex and a 99 ex have different plugs, them i am sure that 96 ls and 99 ls dizzy's have different plugs, obd2 and obd2-a

 

Can I just change the plugs somehow? I don't want to have to send it back to the guy.

 

what you have 99-01 LS/B20 dizzy which lacks the RPM pick up. you can use it but unless you get rpm pickup thru another way. you will not show RPM on the cluster.

Looks like you need a TD85U, from this list.

I don't see TD74U listed though, so this list is apparently incomplete.
