November 29, 200619 yr Yep, the topic is it. My brain has died. How the heck can I tell a Hitachi from a NipponDenso dizzy, without having the cap to look at? I've got two, both are wore out (bushings and vac cans), both without the caps. (Apparently I misplaced the cap when I pulled it out of the old motor.) And apparently I must be blind, as I fail to see any identifying marks on either. I'm debating on just buying a fresh "new" one from Philbin outright (ND:$249!), so I can get on with my life, and then send in one for a rebuild to have as a spare. So, in order to not sound like an idiot when I call in to send in the repair, how can I tell which is which? Cheers from underneath the bag.
