more than likely i would say yeah. u can usually jack them from the junkyard, just grab a couple. i dont know if it has to be specificly out of a teg, but i know most hondas have them and im sure they are all similar. but im not positive.

^ could be the main relay ... or could be your coil in your distributer going bad ( shorted out ) how many miles on motor healthy tune up goes a long way ( cap rotor plugs wires COIL) lol
