  • d16 has a rough start....

    Ok so my boys ek starts up a little rough at first...drives perfectly fine..very smooth etc...then once its turned off, it just cranks and takes a few moments to start...sometimes up to 2mins..not continuous, don't want to mess up the starter....fuel pump primes..doubt its the main relay..my guess is the distributor is starting to go and its not getting good spark, spark plugs, cables...dizzy cap and rotor were recently changed...car has plenty of gas, starter is working fine, alt is charging battery, battery itself is good, holds a charge etc......any ideas?

        car was sitting for 2 months..ran it down to just before e and filled it up...the majority of the old gas should be out

          starter works fine, doesn't seize or anything...main relay? it should be working fine because I could hear the fuel pump prime..and car has no problem staying on for 30mins- 1 hour

                    Someone will say yes but I have a bunch of spares nd the 96-2k one is taller but the plug will fit a 92-95 don't kno if it makes a diff but I like to do stuff with the correct corresponding components
