Wondering if my distributor is part of my fuel problem?

 

what kind of problem are u having? to answer your question, No. Distributor has nothing to do with fuel delivery, but has a lot do do with how your car burns your fuel...Distributor=distributes spark to burn your fuel on each cylinder.

 

Yes. The CYP sensor tells the ECU when to set off an injector.

 

My ride starts up but then shuts off immediately. It will not hold gas. I tried checking spark on the wires. only two wires held spark. But I have new plugs and wires. Is it the dist.

 

so r u saying you have spark in only 2 cylinders? if thats the case, yeah something is wrong with your distributor not your fuel. But yes, the distributor tells the computer when to fire an injector.

 

No kidding it is my distributor...Dam that means a lot of pecos...I bet it is expensive right?

 

Does the car run fine most of the time? If so and the car is throwing NO codes, and your sparking only a one or two of the plugs after it dies, then chances are its your ignitor.

 

yeah used ones run about 100 bucks from the junkyard. what motor are you running? if its stock is it DPFI or MPFI? i have extra distributors for both. I'll do like 75 for one if you would like. Let me know.

I have the sucky dual port....Yeah u have one for sale???

 

You should try a new cap and rotor man. If your getting spark then that means your internals for the most part are working in the distributor. If all else fails then I would get a new one.

 

try replacing the ignitor...
