Distro for D16Z6 with obd0 electrics?
 

i'm kind of confused; can i use the Z6 obd1 distributor with my PS9 ecu with turboedit or will i need to use my A6 distro or something else?

Re:Distro for D16Z6 with obd0 electrics?
 

A6...but you'll need to modify the mounting holes in order to get it to fit. Search around. -Z

i've been searching but all i get is
"yeah you need an obd0 distributor and mod it....."

they dont say how to mod it or anything useful :O
i need a clear cut idiot's guide to using a a6 distro in a z6 engine

go to walmart (with some money) and get a dremmel(tools isle). buy the metal cutting bit(usually above the dremmel), looks like a drill bit but not. walk up to the front of the store with both in your hands, find an empty reg. put the items on the black magical moving belt. flirt with the 18 year old hot ass chick at the reg. pay for it, go to your car and drive home. when you get home open the packageing and READ the instructions. use the new metal cutting bit to round out the hole in the ear on the dizzy that is pointing up when the dizzy is aligned correctly, TAKE THE DIZZY AWAY FROM THE CAR lol take the bit and start to round out that hole. wipe off the metal shavings that it creates before testing it in the car again. after you get a good fit , move the dizzy where you need it and use another bolt to hold one of the other legs with a washer to help pin the bottom to keep from leaking oil. there your done.

ha thanks; i think....
and my tard ass just figured out how to search the archived content on honda-tech :-p so much ---- there haha; oops; reading is overrated

thats what I did, and timing is still too retarded, this is a pain in the..

Who else is running this setup and his timing is fine?

Re:Distro for D16Z6 with obd0 electrics?
 

i'll be trying it out in ~ a week or so

Re:Distro for D16Z6 with obd0 electrics?
 

im running a dizzy modified that way now and it is just fine. you need to make sure and bore that slot out till there is barely any metal on the outside of it so the bolt will have lots of play

Re:Distro for D16Z6 with obd0 electrics?
 

can u show me a pic of the distributor's positions? id like to see where u got the timing right, mine is still retarded.

pls

Re:Distro for D16Z6 with obd0 electrics?
 

I just cut the whole thing thing outta there. So now there is a slot. Kinda like a U. I have returned dizzy to the parts store like this before. They don't notice if you do a nice job.

Re:Distro for D16Z6 with obd0 electrics?
 

I really need a pic, I know my timing is too retarded, today i shifted into second and the car die for a moment, i felt like it lost power.

something is wrong with it.

Re:Distro for D16Z6 with obd0 electrics?
 

that sounds more like timing than the dizzy. check your timing belt.

Re:Distro for D16Z6 with obd0 electrics?
 

Cam timing directly effects ignition timing... so, what may look like a distributor timing issue, could be based as a cam timing issue.

..as onyx suggested.

Re:Distro for D16Z6 with obd0 electrics?
 

but it only did it when I shifted into second, I took it to 7K rpm in first gear, then shifted into second and I felt like the car died for an instance.

I did the timing myself and I saw everything lined up.

car sometimes idles fine sometimes doesnt,i think im having problems with the eacv sensor.

this intake manifold is from a 88 crx, those sensor have been never replaced.
d16z6 with d16a6 intake manifold, timing on the distributor not fine.
I think that may be the problem.
I also have a leak on the exhaust and the valve cover, where the threw bolts go it has no thread, is leaking oil form there, maybe im losing pressure there.
