If it's in the distributor, you're probably taking about a cam angle sensor on one of those vehicles. Most crank sensors are mounted at the crank snout near the harmonic balancer.

not on a honda.....almost every non OBDII honda dist. has a cam and a crank sensor in the distributor.


there are two seperate sensors in it, one is for cam reference, and the other is crank....the ecu interpolates the difference.


my bet is you have a wiring issue...but there is a poss. that it is a bad dist.


BTW....this is FC735...my computer is dead...
