I have a dizzy problem with my OEM Vtec Dizzy so I bought one from south florida sales, it's clean and it works, only thing is, I still get the coil code, I don't wanna buy a new one and I have rebuilt my civic and Altima dizzy so I'm confident in my skills.... However, I've Ben hearing around that its not good to replace with a non OEM dizzy which I don't have access to at the moment and my car won't stay on as it is.

Should I be build my OEM Vtec dizzy or take the chance on an aftermarket auto shop dizzy??? Lmk, thanks all!

FYI - I'm running an F22b1 vtec with a non vtec wire harness, everything is wired properly, I have a fully functioning vtec. I'm unsure of the ECM, It's ODB1 but I don't know if its a vtec ECM or non vtec ECM. I have another open thread for that already.

 

What year/trim Accord do you have? Add to signature line.

What obd1 code are you getting? What is wrong w/ OEM vtec distributor?

good luck

 

Alright, I give, what's a dizzy? A distributor?

 

I did not know I could do that, I will update the profile with the car info but now for the thread, it's a 94 coupe Accord DX , swapped f22b1 vtec, 5speed m/t

 

Yes lol , dizzy is short for distributor

 

The sensors in distributor are different (don't know why) on the 94 non-vtec engine compared to Vtec engine. No way to "fix" this distributor to my knowledge. Solution is to rebuild or replace your OEM distributor.

good luck

 

Ignition coil sensor and cylinder position sensor, both located within the dizzy and not separately repairable. So I bought another with a bad coil as well, cyp sensor is in good shape.

Geez, I've been turning a wrench for nearly 40 years now and I've never heard that one before.

 

I'm in south Miami along with a whole generation of people after yours, like older folks, I refer to my car as a she lol
