well i got a distributor for a 98 mazda millenia and the one off my 93 is broken. and where im at its like $350 for a new one.
so is there a way to change the wires on the plug to make it work. i am basically asking for some wiring diagrams. i have one for the mx3. but thats it.

i doubt it man. i think you need the proper disty for your ecu. theres more to it then just a plug.

It's not just the wires that's the easy part (see HEI mod in Fax). The newer OBD2 disty has no cam sensor that your ECU is looking for. Either do a [WTB] post or PM me, I have a spare, spare disty.
