The EP-TD-22 is a complete ignition distributor for the Honda Civic and CRX of the 1988-1991 generation -- the fourth-generation Civic that established Honda's reputation for fuel efficiency and reliability. This generation covers the transition from early Honda PGM-FI to the more sophisticated EFI systems that followed.

The TD-22 designates the TEC-supplied distributor used in North American Honda Civic and CRX models from 1988 through 1991. The Cardone reference 84-17401 with ID TD-01UW (noting the TC-05A coil) confirms this as the primary distributor for the 88-89 Civic/CRX/Wagovan application, with TD-27U, TD-28U, and TD-22U as the OEM distributor body identifiers.

Ships complete with cap and rotor. The Civic and CRX from this generation are extremely popular in the JDM and tuner communities, making the EP-TD-22 a steady aftermarket demand item worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a TEC and a Hitachi Honda distributor?
For most 1988-2000 Honda Civic and Accord models, Honda sourced distributors from two suppliers: TEC (Tokai Rika Electric) and Hitachi. The TEC and Hitachi distributors are NOT interchangeable -- they use different cap bolt patterns, different rotors, different internal components, and different external housing dimensions. You must replace your distributor with the same manufacturer type as the original. To identify your type, look for the letters TEC or the round Hitachi logo stamped on the side of your existing distributor housing. TD-series part numbers (TD-41, TD-42, TD-80, etc.) are typically TEC units. D4T and D6P prefix part numbers are Hitachi units.
What are the symptoms of a failing Honda distributor?
The most common Honda distributor failure symptoms include: intermittent no-start condition especially when the engine is hot (engine starts cold but fails to restart after reaching operating temperature -- a classic igniter failure pattern); rough or erratic idle; hesitation or stumbling under acceleration; a bouncing tachometer needle (classic sign of a failing igniter module); check engine light with OBD1 Code 9 (CYP sensor fault on 1992-1995 models) or OBD2 codes P0335/P0336 (CKP sensor), P1361/P1362 (TDC sensor), P1381/P1382 (CYP sensor), or P1399 (general misfire) on 1996-2000 models; and oil contamination inside the distributor cap (indicating failure of the internal shaft seal, part NOK BH3888E on TEC non-VTEC applications).
Does the EP-TD-22 cover the 1988-89 Honda Civic Wagovan?
Yes. The Cardone cross-reference 84-17401 for the TD-22 application explicitly lists Honda Civic, CRX, and Wagovan 1988-89. The Wagovan (the wagon version of the EF-generation Civic) shares the same D-series engine and TEC distributor specification as the Civic and CRX of this era. EP-TD-22 covers all three body styles.
How do I order EP-TD-22 for export or wholesale?
EP supports single-unit orders for market sampling, carton quantities for repair shops and parts counters, and container-volume wholesale orders. Standard production lead time is 15-30 days. OEM branding and private-label packaging are available for qualifying volumes. Contact our team via the inquiry form or WhatsApp for pricing and availability.
