Toyota Corolla 1990 Distributor Problems

Recommended Posts

Hello Guys! I have a Corolla '90 which has some problems with the ignition. The engine is 4a-fe. I don't know why, but there is no spark at any spark-plug. What can be wrong?

At the distributor there are 2 connectors:one is with 2 wires and the other one 5 wires. At first connector the red-black wire is with electricity but not even one wire from the other five gets electricity.

What should I check?

Thank you!

P.S. Sorry for the grammar... :)

if there is power going from the coil to the dist, but no spark coming out of the dist. the Condinser is bad. Small round thing that has a wire that hooks to the points.

My suggestion for that, would be to check the rotor. Anytime I do a tuneup on my car, I replace the cap and rotor, along with my wires (a little more pricey than just the wires, but it's been worth it to me.) The one time I let my husband do my tuneup, and buy my plugs and wires, he didn't buy me the kit with the cap and rotor, and I had to replace the rotor shortly after anyways. Quick cheap thing to check. It could also be what was said above, so I would suggest checking all of it there.
