Product Details

Cardone Distributor 31-17485 is a remanufactured ignition distributor designed to deliver proper voltage to the spark plugs in the correct timing pattern. The distributor is gray, uses a magnetic coil design, and includes an electronic module while excluding the coil wire, distributor cap, rotor, and integrated ignition coil. For Honda Civic owners, this part number 31-17485 supports reliable ignition performance on 1996-1998 Honda Civic models with Hitachi distributor applications and 1999-2000 Honda Civic models with an upgrade to an electronically controlled distributor.
