If he replaced the cap and rotor and still has the issue, the actual distributor can still be bad? Whats left to be bad on it? Wires…may or not be the problem, but any experienced ‘tech’ will tell you that if everything is original, to do cap/wires/rotor and plugs (if not done before) at the same time. ---

Try to replace the coil ,besides just the cap and rotor. I just replaced the rotor and cap and it didnt do jack. I just bought a used dizzy on honda-tech for 50 .00 shipped. I had this problem under boost. So in the spring I am just replacing the whole thing. ---

Different than yours. My tach needle jumped like crazy above vtec. I also had one off eBay that caused similar problems to yours. That’s when I went with the distributor king one and fixed most of the issues. ---
