car not starting

Post by tical »

My mx-3 has been sitting for the last 10 months due to losing my license. Anyways, Im ready to go but the cars not wanting to start. Ive figured out its not getting a spark and I tracked that back to the distributer cap. The caps not puttin out a spark either. Now I want to know if it could be anything else but the cap, rotor button, or the ignition box, because Ive already got those but havent got to put them in yet...

thanx

Charge up your battery. It most likely went dead from sitting. It should fire right up after you charge it. :2thumbsup:
