i car wont start the engine turns over it just wont start up......i have checked the fuel line pump and filt. I have checked my ignition coil, distibuter, and spark plug/ wires. i dont know what cou;ld be the problem....no its not the battery

 

come on guys im without a car please help me out

 

Did you check the injectors or the FPR? You could be getting fuel to the filter, but it still may not be getting to the cylinders.

The reasons for a no start would usually be caused by a lack of spark or lack of fuel.

 

A rather common problem is that the ignitor (it's part of the distributor) goes bad which prevents the car from starting.

 

but checked the voltage of the distributer and everything...and whats an FPR

 

FPR = fuel pressure regulator

You need air, spark, fuel, and compression to start an engine. Are you 100% sure that you have spark? Have you taken the plugs out and tested to see if they are sparking?

 

HEY....mrfatbooty or westcoaststyle...hope u can help me...

Story: I was gonna check if one of my cylinders was sparking, so i took the plug out while it was running(this was the third cylinder...at least i think it was...the cylinder 3rd if u start counting from the left...i have a D16Z6). Anyway...when i took it out the car stalled and now i cannot start it.

tell me about the ignitor?

i am getting NO spark whatsoever from all 4 plugs.

That rules out wire failure and plug failure(no way all 8 components can go wrong at the same time)

Is this igniter replaceable? Or do i need a whole new distributor?

i checked it till i was blue in the face....i will check the regulator i dotn knkow what it could be guys

 

Were you grounding the plugs while you had them connected? They have to be touching a ground to fire. h:

I might have an extra ignitor. If one of you guys needs one to test to see if that's the problem, let me know and we'll work something out.

 

they were grounded on two parts of the engine....i did this twice..no spark!

I need this igniter now actually. Where in AL do you list westcoast? Maybe i can drive over there?
