Installing ignition distributor can be tricky if not few steps are followed correctly. This video shows how to install a Honda dizzy on a VTEC H22A motor. This is similar for all vehicles. Ignition timing marks must be aligned, so as the distributor rotors in intake stroke or it will end up being off and the car will not start.

    Thank you so much man. I had to remove my distributor to access something below it, and since i have never done it before I did not know to mark it, and when i re-installed the car wouldn't start. Now i can sleep tonight knowing ill be able to fix this in the morning!

    I just pulled my distributor off to replace all the seals, cap, rotor, external ignition coil ect. Turned the shaft a whole bunch and didnt mark the head that goes into the engine when I pulled the pin and snap ring off. Now I have to do what you describe in the video to find TDC and then if it still wont work, flip the head on the distributor 180* with the pin and snap ring. 95% sure that will do so just leaving a like a head of time

    Hey bro I have a question when you do the timing on the ignition for the distributor with the light gun do you have to ground out these one connections and bypassum I'm doing it on a Honda prelude 5th generation h22 the timing is reading at 16° cuz my tuner said it to that but the car takes a while to start up and before I had it on the whole in the middle but I don't remember what degree it was back then and he timed it without doing the connection bypass he just hooked up the light and didn't but I think he's not reading how it is

    Really a very good video. I can follow you so well up to 8min. After that, I start to lose you. You said intake stroke vs exhaust stroke. Why did you say this? I don't think I understand. Doesn't TDC happen on compression and exhaust strokes? Are you trying to say it should be TDC on compression and not exhaust stroke? And the timing mark, at 1st it cannot be seen and suddenly it's obvious. How did you do that? You did not show.

    @KangoKid Kidd check that you have spark by taking a wire plug off and ground it to the exhaust or body and crank. Or just use a light to test if you have one. Number 1 cylinder is the furthest from the dizzy. You need to - 1. set #1 to top dead center. 2. Check timing marks to verify its TDC. 3. Have the dizzy rotor face the right pole (#1). 4. Make sure there is spark of course. 5. You must have a known good dizzy.

    Y’all are hyping this guy up when he isn’t intelligent! You cannot install the distributor 180 degrees off, it may sorta look like you can, however the slot is offset, and always has been. Next he’s using wire twists. No decent auto repair facility would ever hire someone who’s work looked like a cave man did repairs. If you dropped this car off at the dealer and after picking it up you opened the hood and saw this, you’d be wow these people are intelligent??? No you wouldn’t
