The proper distributor for a ZC is from an 88-89 Integra. - also if you really still think it is leaking air, then it is most likely the intake manifold gasket leaking..I had that issue on my 78 Civic...too much air means a lean condition...but I'd out the correct dizzy on it first - except the two issues dont' really seem related.
