Default b18b distributor

Having problems with jdm b18b distributor wiring colors not matching common diagrams.
According to "ff-squad" my distributor should have have:
1-yellow/green
2-light blue
3-white
4-yellow
5-black
6-green
7-red
8-dark blue
9-black/yellow

But this is not what i have. My distributor has:
1-tan
2-tan/blue
3-light blue/green
4-yellow/green
5-white
6-white/blue
7-light blue/yellow
8-black/yellow
9-blue

Not sure what colors serve what.

Post pics. No B-series distributor I can think of has red, green, yellow, or black wires.

So.. Im searching honda-tech, looking for clues as to why my distributor wiring colors are odd. Came across a random thread about distributors, caps, coils and rotors. Then it hits me, ROTOR. Forgot i robbed the rotor from the distributor for a friend. Pulled rotor from spare d16y7. Tossed it in. Didnt fully start, but i got a good 3 seconds of banging and popping. Now onto distributor wiring. Probably wont need help from here. Will report back when she is up and running. Thanks everyone for your help.
