Hello,
I have a 1995 Honda Accord 2.2 EX, non vtec, with a F22B4 engine (made in Japan, made for the Caiman Islands KY as far as I researched). I'm in Paraguay that's why I got this model.
I'm finding it hard to find parts online, specifically a timing belt set. It gets confusing with the different models available, as the EX from the USA has vtec and has a F22B1 engine.
Any ideas?
Would the timing belt from the US version fit?
The engines seem so similar.
Probably, but which one is my question. The US EX F22B1 has VTEC, which leads me to believe it won't fit my non VTEc engine.
I would try to research if either of the Aisin kits listed in the link above would fit your engine. The engines are the same platform. So one of those should fit. But please verify. Maybe contact the parts store directly to see if it fits your engine.
The VTEC solenoid is on the other end of the engine block from the timing belt.
I would think the systems are independent of each other, because all VTEC does is change the cam profile. But the timing belt maintains the same timing.

Found it. The tbelt has 113 teeth, which is what the DX and LX has.
Awesome! Glad you were able to find the right one.
Do you have a Honda Dealership nearby?
450km away is the nearest and the prices are out of this world.
I just saw that the B pillar on the bottom (when opening the drivers door) has a badge with the VIN number and information in arabic. Could that help with the identification for finding parts?
Maybe, post a photo here.
I already found a catalog for this model on a website called partsouq.com. These are made for 4 regions apparently, Europe, America, General and Japan, mine being in the General category.
It appears this EX is similar to the DX and LX you guys have.
Just that this one has cruise control, leather interior, electric seats, no airbags, no abs, no vtec.
