    The Cylinder Position Sensor is not repairable. If you don't want to install a new genuine Honda distributor housing, and reuse your existing igniter and coil, consider buying a complete distributor from your local salvage yard ($55). Over 50% of new aftermarket distributors for Hondas either don't work initially or fail prematurely, at AMHD. Aftermarket manufacturers can't get the internal sensors right. Therefore, I only recommend genuine Honda distributor housings.
