Ignition coil is in the distributor.

Have you checked distributor rotor, distributor cap, spark plug wires, spark plugs? All these are as likely as a bad coil.

good luck

It is unusual to miss w/o load and not miss under load. Perhaps a large intake air leak, check PCV, brake booster vacuum line, and other vacuum lines for leaks.

Are plugs new or recent?

good luck

The 95 4-cylinder accord doesn't have an OBD2 connector, so how are you scanning it? What engine code(s) are you getting?

All the plugs and wire are good everything else work normal it not a constant misfire if the car running for a min it would probably misfire about 4 time . It is a obd2 you have to pull the ashtray out and it there even autozone said it was not obd2 cause they could not find the connection .

I think I read somewhere that a few 95 Accords were OBD2.

What codes were detected? This may be best clue to problem.

Cracked rotor or cracked distributor cap could lead to random misfire. Unlikely to be coil.

good luck

The ignition coil is not in the distributor it is connected to rhe distributor by the coil wire... (QUOTE=TexasHonda;264388]Ignition coil is in the distributor.

"Flinch" - I'll let this one ride....this thread is over a year old, also the vtec (EX) engines come with the coil inside the dist on this gen....the LX and DX have the external coils....the op said they had a vtec hence internal coil.
