CEL Code 9 went off in my 97 Prelude SH, so followed the Internets ways and bought a rebuilt distributor in the mail. Now is the installation part of it... Ive looked on google, and there doesnt seem to be too much information. All in all, just wondering if anyone could direct me to a website or advise me on how to do it myself. One example I saw required a gun style reader that I don't have, and am wondering if it is necessary.

Thanks..

 

maybe a helms manual.. they are a cake walk..

just go outside and take off the 3 12mm bolts and unplug it and bam come right out

 

what about the timing though? dont want that to be off

Maybe find a friend to help you.

 

ur ganna have to retime it when replacing the distributor, just set it somewhere near the middle and it should be good enough for awhile. Yeah just take out the 3 bolts, and unplug the connectors and it comes right out. Make sure to have a paper towell or shop rag to catch any dripping oil.

 

position it same place as the old one looks and it should be real close to dead on. not super important if u are non turbo .
