This video goes over how to replace an ignition distributor cap and rotor on a 1998 Honda Civic with a 1.6 motor. This should be the same process for any 1998 -2002 Honda Civic with a 1.6. A cap and rotor is something found in older model cars with a distributor style ignition system. The heart of the distributor style system is the distributor, which is an engine driven device that passes voltage from the ignition coil, through plug wires to the spark plugs. Newer cars no longer have distributors, they have individual coils instead. A cap and rotor, spark plugs and wires are maintenance items that will eventually wear out overtime/miles. Signs of a bad cap and rotor could be a check engine light, misfiring, rough running, extended cranking or no starting.
