Hi,
In 1994, the 2.2L did not have a distributor cap and rotor. This vehicle uses an ECM-controlled electronic direct ignition system. You have two coils, a camshaft position sensor, a crankshaft position sensor, and an ignitor. These components are controlled by the ECM to control ignition and are in place of a cap and rotor.
I attached a pic below showing the system. Let me know if this helps.
Take care,
Joe
