86 5kcstq code 2113

[Peter Berrevoets]

I'd be inclined to do things in this order;

1) Make sure the distributor cap is securely fastened and in the correct
position
2) make sure the two senders, I'm not sure if the 86 has one or two, on the
joint between the right side of the engine block and the tranny bell housing
are seated correctly and tightly.
3) make sure the distributor is lining up properly as per the bentley
manuals - ie make sure static timing is set dead on.
4) make sure all electrical connections on the bulkhead to the above
components are clean and securely snapped together
5) if no start still, check for cracked wires on the distributor hall sender
6) replace the hall sender in the distributor
7) if still no start - suspect ignition coil - replace. (this is an
expensive part - exhaust all other possibilities first!! There is no way to
test the coil for "good/bad")
