I need the distributor vacuum advance thing for a TEC distributor. After a more closer look, I found cracks in it and upon reinstall, it broke.
Local yards wont sell me the advance without buying the whole distributor and the only one rockauto has is for a hitachi one.
Auto or manual doesn't matter, I'd actually prefer a manual one if possible but again, doesn't matter.

On a side note, anyone know if an aftermarket one has been adapted to work? Maybe like a GM one or something?

HALP!

Did a quick search earlier and all I found was whole distributors and then it went to GM parts.
I'll dig around more in a bit.

So I found one for an 88-89 prelude, looks very similar... any ideas if it would work?

Doesn't look exactly the same but the mounting area looks very similar

Can be hard to recognize pieces indeed.
I know Accord and Prelude shared lots of parts, also dizzy's. Not sure of this particular one.
