Wow OK well do u still recommend me just getting a coil and icm or a full distributor? And if a full distributor where can I get one for a cheap price

[TxGreaseMonkey]

Didn't you just get a used distributor housing from salvage? A number of people have purchased a complete distributor housing, ICM, and coil for their Honda for around $55 from salvage. One guy bought one that only had 30,000 miles on it.

[Hondaking]

Well I got it from a guy from craigslist that was parting out a 91 sedan he said it works but when I looked inside it was missing the coil and it had oil inside and on the outside of the housing and he also lied and told me the car only had 164,000 miles on it witch is less then mine but when I got there that's the first thing I checked and it had 205,000 miles witch is more but I bought it cause he said it was good and it was the same engine and distributor

[Hondaking]

Are they from the same year car?

[TxGreaseMonkey]

I would call around to several salvage yards and get the best deal you can on a complete distributor, including ICM and coil. Again, try to get one from a lower mileage 1990 Civic--ensure part number check out.

[Hondaking]

Well I'm returning that distributor to get my money back and get one worth my money will rthe salvage yard be able to tell me if they have a td-o1u in there yard?

[Hondaking]

I have been looking for a distributor all day and can't find one locally so I got on the internet and still could not find one until I ran across a bosch distributor for less then 150 brand new is that worth my money or not keeping in mind that nobody has a distributor for my car o and I think my distributor is a 2pin-5pin am I correct

I'm skeptical of all aftermarket distributors for Hondas, but it's your car and go with your gut. You do want a lifetime warranty, however. Some salvage yards are hooked up to a national network where they can scour the market for used parts. Ask them about that capability or call Advance Auto Parts. They claim they can do it.

[Hondaking]

They don't pick up the phone but there's a guy selling a TD-18U I'm assuming that would not fit right

[TxGreaseMonkey]

Correct.

[Hondaking]

I been looking for distributors all day and cannot find one for my car the only one I have found at a good price being new and all is that bosch

[TxGreaseMonkey]

What kind of warranty? Is the outfit local, so you can return it if it does not work?

[Hondaking]

It doesn't show anything about warranty and no its not local,I think I'm going to have one of my uncles from boston look it up over there and my other uncle from puerto rico look it up over there cause in puerto rico it's a good chance they will have it there's a lot of these cars over there but would it be dangerous to ship them
