I have a 93 vtec prelude. My problem started when I pulled out of the garage today. I heard a whinning rattling sound. I found that the sound was coming from the distributor cap. I pulled the cap and there where no broken parts from the cap/rotor, it did look like the rotor hit the tips on the cap. I replaced the cap /rotor and the car still made same sound.

I think it's the distributor. Is there any special way of installing the new one, do I have to worry where the rotor is facing? Or will the car know to automatically spin the rotor to the #1 cyclinder then spark it or does the #1 cyclinder have to at tdc 'also'?

Thanks

Just bolt it up to the crank and make sure it fits into the hole....you'll know what im talking about when you take the old one off....

crank?

The dizzy has an offset slot so you can't fuck it up.
