SOURCE: Just replaces spark plugs and wires now it's

Did you properly gap plugs? Are the wires in the correct firing order? Did you pull them off one at a time?
Also, if you have disconnected the battery, the car may take quite a few turn-ons before computer relearns itself.

SOURCE: no spark to spark plugs

It is possible that the distributor cap and/or rotor are faulty. They are not very expensive, easy to replace and will allow the engine to run more efficient. This is a way to visually test the coil to make sure it is good. Remove the coil wire at the distributor and place it against the engine block so the spark can find a good ground. Have someone turn over the engine for only a second or two and keep clear of the wire. You will be able to see how powerful the spark is or if it is bad. Please rate me on this answer.

#2 cylinder misfiring why?

Usually if you know which cylinder, you check spark--fuel--compression on that cylinder.
You could do cylinder balance test, engine idling, kill each cylinder, one at a time. If you kill a cylinder that has no effect on rpms, that cylinder is dead for some reason, spark--fuel--compression?
I usually kill spark and do it quickly.

  • What was the reason for changing the plugs,wires,fuel filter and fuel pump ?
  • Was it running good before ?
  • Could be crossed spark plug wires, check to see if they are going to the right plugs
  • Check to see if fuel filter is on the right way
  • Check to see what your fuel pressure is and if it's within specs

If it is the spark wires you get a misfire code, and probably the CEL.
Read codes, check vacuum system and sensors.

let me know if you need more help with the issue.

2001 Mazda 626 sputters like it is out of fuel or spark

Could be a spark plug wire is wrong.. Just two that are almost right will make a vehical do that or the plugs could need a little more space adjusted in the gap. Or it could be a hose that is lose or has a hole in it.

I had the same problem with my 85 cj7 this week, I relpaced the ignition control module, plugs, wires, cap, rotor and the the coil; still had no fire to plugs. the problem turned out to be my distributor, replaced it today and she fired right up. Most likely it was the pick up module in the distributor that went bad.

Distrbutor to spark plug wiring

Hey there janandshane,

I've got a 91 Wrangler, lots of fun. Here's your info.

Viewed from above, front of vehicle on the right side, cylinder locations are:
6 5 4 3 2 1 for a six cylinder and 4 3 2 1 for a four Cylinder

The firing order is:
1 5 3 6 2 4 for the six and 1 3 4 2 for the four.

The distributor rotation is clockwise.

To find Top dead center (for wire to cylinder #1 on distributor), look for and line up the timing marks on the crankshaft (front of the engine).

Or, pull the #1 spark plug, stuff the hole with a cork or a rag. Slowly crank the engine until the cork pops out.

Pull the distributor off. The rotor is pointing where the plug for cylinder #1 should go. The rest of the wires go in the firing order clockwise.

That about covers it.

Remember: Good things come to those who rate. How about a nice FixYa?

Mike
