I believe my dizzy is well stuffed. Well not completely. Car still starts, car still drives fine but it makes a hell of a grinding, screaming, I've got busted bearings in my dizzy sound. I put my head right next to it so I'm sure it's that. Does anyone know how much I should pay to have this fixed? (b16a1 and I'm in Adelaide) or if I can fix it myself (I'm not a completely mechanically impaired ;)) . The car is going to motorossi on wed. for a service anyway, but I've never taken it there before and I don't want to get ripped off.
Thanks in advance.

you may find this link useful:

replacing teh dizzy bearing (http://www3.honda-perf.org/community/members/Slater/distributor/Distributor.htm)

If you don't want to do that, then my suggestion would be to remove the dizzy yourself and drop it off at a dizzy reco place.

At least this way you save a little bit of money cutting out the middle man.

you can getaway with replacing the dizzy bearing 8 out of 10 times, but sometimes you have to replaces the entire dizzy body ad the sensors get damaged and fault codes get logged in the ecu ( noisy sensors )

Cheers fellas. Motorossi quoted me $150 to replace the bearings so I'm going to get them to do it next week when it's being serviced. Hope thats all it's going to cost :D
