Default Got my JOHNSON stuck in the belt! OWWWW

Not really but I REALLY need quick help

Driving along, car dies (1.6 Vtech). See no spark at plugs and hear/smell fuel pump, Got good belt. I replace rotor/cap, ignition control unit/ignitor and still got no spark at plugs. BUT I noticed just now that U have spark at the coil!!!! WTF? I know all 4 plug wires didnt suddenly go bad.

I think the spring tip of the coil got bent and isnt making a good contact but I dunno. Anyone????????????????

You guys a so ****ing stoooopid You think I know or care how to spell V-tec? WHO ****ING CARES! I got a real problem with my GF's car and you all got your feathers all ruffled other the spelling of a POS hamster wheel 1.6!!!

I got a mother****ing V8-tec beotch!!! 5.8 Liters which I built every inch of myself! I dont CARE! If you know anything about fixing these please speak up, most of have all ready proven how weak you ricers tech skills really are! Sorry to be an ass but I didnt expect to get FLAMED for asking a tech Q!

For those who want to help, I put I gounded wire up ti the coil with the cap off and got a nice fat blue spark.

v-tec != vtec

if you built the 5.8 liter super engine yourself, why can't you fix a little dinky 1.6 liter hamster wheel?

No need to get so upset.. you were wrong about the spelling. It is a stupid thing to point out, but pretty funny sometimes.

The fact that you drive a V8 really isn't all that impressive. I'd probably give you a pretty good run.. h:

As for your problem:
So, it seems that your problem is either that the distrib rotor isn't getting spark to your cap, or your cap isn't transferring the spark to the wires or the wires aren't sending the spark to the plugs.

One of those things is your problem if you have spark at the coil.

hih
