alright, here’s a little back ground… my girl drives a 92 honda civic 1.5l sohc…she broke down the other day… turns out the rotor inside the distributor hasn’t been changed in awhile, so it was completely broken… i got new plugs,wires,cap and rotor and swapped them in, but after running for like 3 mins, the check engine light comes on and won’t go out… so i checked the rotor again, check the wires, that all seams right… now when i take the wires out and check the spark… the 3rd cyl from the left has a spuratic spark…it goes, stops, than will go for a little bit, and stop…and it keeps doing this, than after awhile it’ll work just fine… anyone have any ideas? i’m lost and don’t wanna give her a car back that’s gonna be fawked up… ooo and, i was driving it, it was driving fine but had a slight misfire, than i after it warmed up,i drove it a little harder, and it acted like it wasn’t getting anything from one of the cyl. i really need some help here, and i’d greatly appreciate it… if you have any ideas, pm me, call me ( 412 215 7320)…i want to get this thing going asap… ---
