I searched the forums and I didn't come up with anything definite. What I want to know is, will a BP disty fit into a 94 B6DE? I want to make sure before I spend some money on a BP disty. When searching for a B6DE disty on car-part.com it brings up a disty from a 1996 Protege BP engine.

Also, I want to do the HEI and external coil mod, but will my broken disty work? It has a crack on the plastic (not rotor or cap). Here is a pic



in the circle there is a crack. Can I use this disty for the mod? Lastly, could someone post a pic of the HEI and external coil mod on their 4 cyc?

As always, Thanks

BP and B6 dizzy's are the same. When you do a BP swap, you use your existing B6 distributor.

90-94 BP disty will be compatible with 92-93 B6ME
95-98 BP disty will be compatible with 94-96 B6DE*

*There was a change in rotor internal diameter in mid 94 models

cool, thanks guys. what about info for the HEI mod. Will that crack prevent me from using this old disty for it?

Yes - it is going to allow water/oil/dust to seep into the distributor and might shatter later

i jus did a 94 doch b6 swap to a 95-99 bp swap and i used my distibutor, seems to be workin fine. i also used my spark plugs to from the b6de cause the ones in the bp had broken seals. but i am runnin bosch platinums too..

just to let u know Bosch are the incorrect plugs to use in any Mazda ur better off with NGK platinums that any Bosch brand. NGK's are the oem used plugs.. wasted money on bosch

isn't it a rule of thumb, bosh is more for german cars and ngk for asian? i remember hearing this somewhere, it makes sense to me

oh haha i didnt know, i bought the bosch spark plugs actually for my eagle talon i had then never used them and they fit so i jus used it for the mx-3. i havnt had no problems with them and been using them for several years now..
