    1995 Acura Integra not firing
    I have 95 Acura Integra and after flushing the radiatior I cranked the engine to refill the radiator. After the engine started, I realized that I had an ark coming from one of the spark plug wires that I had knocked off the distributor cap. I cut the engine off and reconnected the spark plug wire and tried cranking the engine again to no avail. I checked to see if it was getting fuel and it was. I then checked the fire at the distributor and there isn't any fire to the rotor or the plug wires. I checked the fuse panel and none were blown. Any ideas what I should look for next? Thanks:(

    You may have over-stressed the coil, when the plug wire came off. Try replacing the coil and see if that does the trick. If the problem persists, replace the ignitor. Here's how to do it yourself:

    Because of the age of the car, I would replace the coil, ignitor, rotor, and distributor cap.

    Thanks greasemonkey! I'll give that a try and see what happens. It is an idea that I didn't think of. Thanks.
