The 1.9l and 2.1l distributors are different. 1.9l have a vacuum advance retard and an oval plug on the side and the 2.1l have no vacuum unit and a rectangular plug on the side. The 1.9l distributors can only be found as either good used, or we can have your old one rebuilt (I have no cores at the moment to have a rebuilt one on the shelf). Here is a link to it on our site so you can see a picture: http://www.vanagain.com/shop/ignition-distributor-025905205k/

This second picture is of the 2.1l distributor: http://www.vanagain.com/shop/ignition-distributor-025905205ag/

Take a look and let me know if we can help you further.
