What Brand for Ignition Parts?
My 98 Civic has a random misfire problem on cold starts on damp mornings. Unable to pinpoint where the problem is I guess I'll have to start replacing parts and see if it helps.
What is a good brand for:
Distributor Cap
Rotor
Coil
This is all stock - I'm not looking for any performance gains other than to return to original efficiency if possible. I replaced the plugs with NGK plugs about 14K ago - the plugs did not affect this problem. I may get the NGK wires but I think the problem is probably in the distributor since random misfire and cylinders 1, 2, & 3 are invloved. (also got the infamous p1399 DTC that apparently nobody knows what it is)
Is it best to get these parts from a Honda dealer to make sure the parts are really replacements and will fit and perform properly?
