Looks like i need a replacement CDI for my AF18E.

Lots of the the CDIs are listed as for Horizontal Engine, is there any difference?

Would a generic noname $5 CDI likely work?

Turned out to not be a CDI problem.

Just a FYI for anyone else with this question, I did order the $5 Generic CDI, plugged it in and it seems to work identical to the Official Honda One.

Wheelman: fleabay has it in the $5 price range, usually from China. Right now there's one for less than $5...
