I have a problem with my 94 gsr. For some reason the engine will not turn over. My battery is fine. I pulled the spark plugs to see if was getting spark and im not. I did replace the spark plugs but I'm guessing its an ignition problem. Its been really cold where i live. what do you think?

check your distrubutor. cap could be cracked (doubt it) check the rotor and coil....

 

Sounds like your coil might be out. You need to take an ohm meter and test the primary and secondary connections.

 

i dont have an ohm meter, is there any other way i determine the problem

 

somthings funny in ur distributor, coil maybe...only costs like 60 bucks or so, replace it,

 

You should check your battery terminals. My 92' would not turn over one cold day and sure enough the + terminal was loose enough to wiggle off. I would try spinning the terminals on the posts of the battery, I they spin, that is your problem. Just loosen the terminal and take plyers and crimp the original terminal to fit tighter. See if that works.

 

happened to my gf's dx, it turned out to be the ignition.
