How many liters?

[amitykamity]

I went get a Distro rotor and cap, they asked me how many liters my car was, i didn't know so they gave me one for 1.5 L. That didn' work. How do I find out how many liters I have? I looked in the manual, and there was no amount of liters below 3.5 L...so wtf?

My car wont run without a new one...and I kinda need to go on a date tonight...someone help me!

wha type of civic do you have?

[crxlvr]

if it wasnt the 1.5, then its a 1.6.

..do you happen to know what trim level your car is? i.e. si, dx, std, ex, etc.

[Civic Jim]

give us the model and year , if not then look on the log book of the car (proof of ownership) it may say it on there

[icE_x]

its prolly 1.6 L

[amitykamity]

its an 1991 Civic LX. Sorry...should've specified that.

Than the 1.5l distributor should work. Maybe its broke. The number on it should be TD-O1U
Maybe they gave you a mpfi 1.5l distributor. The one that works must be stamped td-o1u.

well here's the thing...when i removed the cap and rotor, the old cap had one short pin, and one long pin, and the new one had to short pins [on the inside of course] so im really lost as to what is what, but im gonna look at the code, cause that might tell me whats what.

what pins?

Pins? What? HUH? WTF are you talking about? The only thing that should be inside the cap is the thing that goes into the coil, and then the 4 gold things that the rotor sends spark to.....
