B20 that won't ignite 120-130

posted by  someone claiming to be Fredrik on  Thu May 22 20:07 CST 2003 [RELATED]


A sincere thank you to everyone that helped me track this one down. The Amazon Season 2003 has now officially started. Is there any more beautiful sound than a spinning B20? I don't think so, atleast not after my experiences this spring.

I tried new spark plugs, but that didn't help (the ones already in were less than a year old). Next step was going over the ignition settings. With the engine at 10 degrees and the rotor in the distributor pointing to the little marking I noticed that although the ignition order was correct, the rotor head did not point to the first ignition cable. REALLY emabarrassing, but having straightened this out the car started immediately. What a relief!

I'm leaving early from the office today to drive up to the summer house. Just me and the car. Again: thanks! Enjoy the weekend.
