Wiring for 98 honda civic distributor D16Y7

Asked Sep 4, 2010, 11:16 AM — 1 Answer
I have a 98 Honda civic that I am having problems. The car will run but good for a couple of days but all of a sudden it will shut off. I wasn't getting any spark so I replaced the distributor . I bought it at AutoZone I know its remanufactured and I am still having the same problem.

Over 50% of new aftermarket distributors for Hondas don't work at AMHD. Buy a genuine Honda distributor housing and install a aftermarket ICM and coil, to keep the cost down. Aftermarket ICMs and coils are fine.
