Car was running mint, then died in 24 hours At low rpms the car was bogging BAD, at higher rpms it was fine, when i was in 6th and 1200 rpm car gave no power, back fires, yada yada yada, then died out
couldnt start it
week before i put in new sparks, alt and battery
my mechanic said it possibly the cap and rotor -my question is this: is their a chance its the distributor itself thats messed up?

guys youve got to understand where i live i dont even have a garage. if it were up to me id do all the work myself, but i have neither the time nor the space to work on this thing, so six months for me is plenty of time, considering i wont be driving the car at that time

hey guys let him put the cheap stuff in he will soon find out how much of a pain in the *** it is. and if the car is sitting makes it even worse because the humidity gets in there and corrodes the opti disk then you got to change it again.
