After changing the distributor cap, rotor, plugs, air filter & wires on my 1993 Goe Storm, it started & ran very well but then wouldn't start again. I was having problems where it wouldn't start unless I changed the 2nd sparkplug wire. Now it won't start period. I get a spark from the coil but no spark from any of the wires to the plugs. The distributor itself looks all rusted out.

If its coming out of the coil-Check the cap and rotor it has to make it out of there to get to the plugs

It was the Computer all along. But then I had screwed up the timing really bad. Timed it then bought a distributor cap from Napa, not Auto Zone. New battery, it starts on first crank almost all the time and its been starting without fail since mid August last year. Surprising how fast it is. JoJoRisin
