Ok i got this del sol with a factory b16a3 not running from a dealer they said the timing belt broke and after they replaced still dint start so they decided to sell it
so after i got the car i started messing with it , first thing i did was check the compression and showed me like 25 to like 40 across all cylinders after i check the timing belt marks and they wernt right the xsauht cam was off like 2 teth so i loosen the tensioner and slide the belt off after that i put all the marks where they r supost to be (crank tdc white mark)so now belt is right after i did that i did a compression test and i have
cyl 1 183 psi
cyl 2 195 psi
cyl 3 205 psi
cyl 4 185 psi
after that i tho **** it may start and nothing. I pulled plugs out and they were soak in fuel, today i got new plugs after installing them i went to crank and nothing after ther i remember that the first day i got the car i poped the hood and noticed the dizzy bolts loose , i pull the dizzy out to try to spin it 180 deg and noticed the rotor was hard to move looked inside and the screw was missing so after replacing the rotor, it moves freely now
after all this still doesnt wana start pulled the plugs out againg and they were soaked again. at this point idk what to do next.
plugs from auto zone ngk bkrge-11

 

Sounds rich are the wires in the right order?

 

Sounds like the entire dizzy is owned.

Cheap fix: Buy an igniter, rotor, and cap.
Real fix: Buy an entire new distributor used.

 

took the dizzy out to spin 180 deg after doing that it dind wana go in.
car came with wires that were different (they werent big enouf to fit the valve cover )to the ones i found in the trunk i think they were the old ones

Of course not, one slot side is larger than the other, it can only go in one way.

 

so the compression is allright to start the car rite ?
oh yea the coil had cracks were the wires go
