hey wuts going on i have a 94 integra gsr. i had the battery charging and i went to start the car it cranks perfect, its getting fuel but no spark i took the dizzy off and i was checking it out and the ignitor looked like it blew up so i swaped the ignitor from a 92 civic dizzy i called a local parts store and it was the same part number and still no spark the dizzy is getting juice but no saprk. wut could it be need help thanks

 

bad coil?

 

Probably coil, but worst case scenerio, your timing belt broke so the cam isn't spinning the rotor in the distributor. You can have the coil tested at your local auto parts store usually.

 

I have a similar prob. whats a dizzy?

 

dizzy=distributor and no timing belt it good i think im going to buy a whole new dizzy

 

Check engine light? explain in more detail...when did it start? did you have something installed recently?

 

well check engine no but this is wut happened im selling my car the guy came over to take it home i had it started it was good then i shut it off. then battery isnt the best so i had to put charge it the battery was still hooked up so i let it charge up a lil then i went to start it while the charger still on and no spark and when i took off the ignitor it loked like it poped i changed the ignitor and still no spark i think it had to much current and fried the dizzy wut do u think and if not the dizzy wut else could cause for it not to have spark

 

You realize that the distributor has four vital wear components: the coil, the ignitor, the rotor, and the cap. All of which can be checked, coil and ignitor on testing equipment, and the cap and rotor, visually. The distributor housing usually doesn't need to be replaced unless the bearing or sensor is shot.

Check your fuses, then have your coil tested. You can also stick a spare spark plug in one of the plug wires to see if you get a strong spark when it is turned over.

 

ok the ignitor is the black peice wit the lil spring right and wich is the coil
