#4 of 6 mazda 626 wont start by honeymomsc Jul 22, 2008 (4:14 pm)
One day when I stop at a light my car cut off, when I tryed to startit it sounds like it want to start but won't. well they told me it wasn't any fire getting to the spark plugs. So they put in a new distrubuter. well it still won't start. the timeing has been done on the car before so what else could it be. its getting fuel to it.

Replying to: honeymomsc (Jul 22, 2008 4:14 pm) Long story, started like yours. Ended up replacing distributor 3 times before fixing the problem. Ur Distrib may have been bad may not. Either way, have them ck both the crank sensor and the cam sensor. The computer depends on these in order to time the spark. If either of these are bad ur distrib will not fire and it will appear to be bad.
