Use this guide to replace your Honda Accord's distributor rotor. This specific guide was created for a non-VTEC F23A5 engine, but other 4-cylinder Honda engines will be similar enough to follow the same basic steps. You may have to remove the engine cover in later Accord models.

Distributor Cap

-
Before disconnecting the spark plug wires, be sure to trace their orientation from the individual cylinders back to the distributor cap.
-
The cylinders are ordered from left to right when viewing the engine from the front of the car, with cylinder #1 being closest to the passenger side of the vehicle.
-
Mark the order of the spark plug wires on the new distributor cap with a silver sharpie marker -- it will make reinstallation much easier.
