distributor question.

Let me display my Hondignorance :oops: . The diz I took off the blue wago had a condenser on it, the one I put on does not. (condenser inline in the coil+ wire, mounted on the front of the diz.)


What's the difference?

    Ive used both setups in the same car on the same day with no issues.

    I think the earlier ones came with that inline condenser and the later ones had it internally or something. Shouldnt be a show stopper.

    Got a couple more questions for you gurus:
    When setting the timing, i couldn't find the little connector to jumper in the right footwell like on my '90. Today I saw this?

    And what grounds here/what are these relays? I laid my arm on the bracket and it burnt me- cleaned and tightened, just wondering what it's for..

    Is jumping the connector necessary on obd0 cars? Moving the dizzy changes the timing at idle without the jumper jumped and unless someone can prove that the ecu pulls/adds timing to make up for it under throttle then I think this is just a myth.

    idk, my '89 Hatchback had the same, but not my friends '91 hatch. ....prewired cruise control? lolz...

    still wondering where the timing connector thingy is on the '88, or is that yellow plug it^? It ain't under the glovebox, I've got all that out cleaning the evaporator and fan/housing.
