Engine
I have a 1986 Accord LX that has an obvious crate engine swap. My Question is how can I find out what engine it is and how I can eliminate the problems I have on getting engine parts for it. I am having a very hard time even finding the correct Rotor cap for it. All the parts stores I have been to have caps but none fit my car.
Help Please!
Techno
you have a A20A1
Yes that Is right my engine is an A20A1. So what car is that engine out of and How do I find the right parts for it?

Uuhhh.. a20 is stock in 86-89 cars. you cant find parts!? just go to the local auto parts store and tell them you have an 86 accord lx with the bbl carb.
sorry guys v8's rule
wtf lol ok...... but ya take goldy's advice
Ha Ha, I now know that the stock engine is the A20A1 but...
Like I said Guys, each Cap that I get from the parts store has a flat spot on it. My rotor is completely round. I am having problems finding the right Cap.
Can you tell if you have an hitachi distributor or tec distributor?
Carl
Hitachi distributor is round and Tech distributor has flat on one side.
I am sure you have hitachi distributor. Most carb enignes got hitachi distributor.

Thank you for your help shepherd79. I went back out to the parts store and told them that even though I have Tech wiring the Distributer is Hitachi. They found the cap for me within 5 minutes. I got my part at Napa. I think I will go back to them again as they seem to have a better selection anyway. Only problem is the closest Napa to my house is quite a distance away
dude, NAPA charges arm and a leg for parts.
i go to Autozone or Advance Auto parts.
Alex.
