Hi, look on the engine block for the place where all the spark plug wires go, and you've find the distributor. Unsnap all clips and take off the distributor cap and suppressor shield, leaving the spark plug wires attached.

I have a 1993 Jeep Wrangler 4 cylinder motor. it has a new fuel pump, distibutor cap, rotor button, plugs and wires. my problem is the motor wont start. also the engine rotates slowly. any ideas? is the...

First item you need to go after is the slow turning. have the battery charged and load tested. Once that the battery is verified as fully charged and good, put a volt meter between the two posts and crank the engine. voltage should not drop below 9.5V If it does, It is likely that your starter is worn out. If your distributor has a bolt that goes through an ear that is part of the distributor, you cannot adjust the timing. It is pre-set and controlled by the computer. Make sure you have the firing order correct and that you are indexing from the correct position on the cap.(turn the engine to tdc on the timing scale and rotor should either be pointing directly 180 degrees away from #1 or directly at it. Make sure you are getting spark and fuel when engine is cranking and it should start.

Firing order for plugs to distibutor

Firing order is 1  3  4  2  and start at one, (the top) go one at a time, and move in a clockwise rotation.  looks like this:
                                                                   1 
                                                            2              3                                                                        4

Ignition Module

The module is INSIDE of the distibutor.

Disconnect the Battery, remove the distributor cap, then the rotor, then the leak cover.

The ignition coil has a little spring at the top and is held in by two large screw-bolts.

The ignition control module has 3 wires attached to the top and one on the side. It is held in with two screw-bolts and should come right out.

No fire to my plugs

It all sounds like you have a bad computor. If you are not getting fire from the coil. The source will lead you back to the brain source, (The Computor). Go to the local junk yard to get another one at half price.

Car won't start in rain

Sounds like the distributor cap is cracked and allowing moisture in. I would start there.
