Ford Probe V6 Distributor into a MX3 V6 will it work

Post by bluemx3 »

Does anyone know if a Distributor from a Probe v6 stated to be over 200 HP work in a MX3 standard K8 v6 engine. I have an oppotunity to buy
one cheap as a spare, just in case mine goes bad , but I don't know if it will fit my MX3 V6.
Thanks for any information with this question.
Owner of 7 different cars, 5 being convertibles. 1990 Miata is one of my summer fun cars. I enjoy that car so much, I thought owning a MX3 would be fun also. Drive with your top open or top down. See my car web site at http://www.cardomain.com/ride/816145

yeah the 93 one works. I bought one from a 1993 mazda 626 this weekend and it works like a charm.

Yes, the 93-97 disty's from the Probe GT, 626, Mx6 all work. Just remember if you get the obdII version, a couple of the wires are crossed.
