HELP dead engine!
i have a 1999 2ltr petrol, was warming the engine after bout 5 min it cut out and would not start, after some argument with the battery charger am fairly sure its not that, poss spark plugs?? how do i check? and is there anything else i can check thats likely to cause this.
engine is cranking over just no sign of spark at all not even a cough.
-
check the disbutor rotor and make sure the disbutor is timed correctly.
-
is that likely to have changed in the 8-9 months ive had the car? although i have had a belt squeak for like 20-40 seconds when i start the car, or is that unrelated?
-
cant see what i was expecting distributor to look like is this it?
sorry last car i had was a diesel hilux been years since i had to work on a petrol car

no that would be ur abs block. Ur distbutor is connected to ur spark plug wires.
-
yea that has since occurred to me looks like its hiding under air filter will wait for day light. when i find it what part to i take of and what am i looking for?
-
now I'm confused. Because you postsed in the 6gen section and ur car is an 8th gen. You shouldn't have a distubor. You should coil on plug hybrid . Then I'm not sure because it might be differnet in the states
