I have an 1989 Acura Integra RS. Driving to work today it started missing and died. Once on the side of the road, I saw smoke coming from under the hood. Long story short there's a small cylinder shaped piece mounted to the side of the distributor that is totally fried. It looks like it has two wires coming from it. It looks like a small condenser but not sure. The auto parts store had no idea what it was. Can someone identify this part and give any advice? Thanks in advance.
