v6 mx3 spark problem

[Daninski]

Why has no one mentioned the HEI mod to him. Modual is $15 bucks or so and the coil MSD is around $45. Tower and coil wire is about $20 and hey no more disty problem. I'm in such a good mood I'll even include for no additional expense a link to the HEI mod FAX but act now cuz we can't offer deals like this all day. http://www.mx-3.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=69006" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Finally I'm willing to include, only for today, a link to a site that mods disty caps for you just in case your not exactly proficient with your hands. Actually i have the link at home so if you'd like the link PM me. The caps with a modded tower are around $45. Just call me,,,Vince

the HEI mod is indeed NOT the fix-all it is made up to be.

It solves the ignitor issue, but not the cam position sensor issues, which the car needs to run, and can cause a no-spark or odd-spark situation.

Need to check it with multimeter as described. However if it's bad your CEL check engine light would probably be on

Stick with your 4 bangers Ryan. Since when did the cam sensor become a common problem? We all know what the HEI is for besides the fact it gives you a stronger spark and that can't be bad. 92-93 disty had cam sensors, not sure about 94 and 95-97 no cam sensor in the disty.

i have no check engine light on so its not the CPS? the damn thing wont stay running for a minute now.. just dies over and over.. and it started to run then die but before it kills its self it starts to run again.. then dies... is there anyone in spokane WA that has a extra disty? or willing to put there disty up for a test? i dont want to spend 300$ on a brand new one if its not the problem.. and my back 3 spark plugs i cant get the rubber boot to come off the stupid spark plug so i can get the plug out of the damn hole.. any ideas? and if u live in spokane wa and are willing to please contact me via pm and ill give u my number... Thank you so much for all the help..

and my back 3 spark plugs i cant get the rubber boot to come off the stupid spark plug so i can get the plug out of the damn hole..

put a glob of superglue on the plug wire and stick it back in, let it dry for 10min then the cap should come out with the cable. i tried many different things before i came up with that genious method.

[mitmaks]

coat hanger will take them out also

[mikeinaus]

tried that and i didnt have much luck. also tried taping a screw onto a stick, and rigging a straw up to a shop vac. least time consuming/easiest would probably be the superglue. crawling ontop of your motor trying to fish it out with a coat hanger isnt the funnest thing in the world.

well i tryed to use a very long pair of needle nose pliers but it didint work.. And now i ask myself.... why didint i think about superglue?..... after i get home from the plasma center ill try it... thx
