alright this car is buggin me ne wayz this is the deal...car was park in a lot for like 2 months then i started it up let it run 10 mins or so brought it over to the car wash ...turned it off...washed it....turned it back on drove it back to the lot....let it sit 10 or 20 mins while i washed another car then i went back and drove it up the block wit a coupel buddies...driving super slow ...we stopped at a import shop to get a part real quick....we all hop back in our cars again as im pulling out of the parking spot the car just dies ....i got to start it back up and it trys to turn over but no catch at all. then it sat in a lot again for another month or so...i towed it home and now im working on it. ok so battery is dead so i gotta jump it i can't fig it out...so i see oil comming from the bottom of the distributor...so i pull that and clean it up wit carb cleaner put it back together and then see if i got spark no spark...then i put in some wires from my 00si and plugs also just to test it and see whats up...still no spark im thinking no power to distributor or coil is out or something ....but if u got ne ideas then let me know asap plz....btw its not outta gas
coil and igniter, about $400 for a shop to replace them... that would be my guess anyways. if you do replace the coil yourself, provided that actually is the problem, be sure not to use an aftermarket coil -- your car will run like crap...
