I had same problem change the ignition coil

Re: 01 gsr problem...need help
 

Didchanging the ignition coil fix ur issue?

Re: 01 gsr problem...need help
 

Yeah if you have a meter you can check if its bad or not just to
Make sure

Re: 01 gsr problem...need help
 

Yea if you change the coil in the distributor then it should fix it.. The guts of the distributor usually never go bad,just the coil.. Changing the rotor and cap would help for better spark also..

Re: 01 gsr problem...need help
 

Can't check if coil is bad. Plugs smell heavly of fuel. Checked if I had spark. I have no spark on any plugs. I have ngk wires. No damage to them. Took cap off. Where the rotor connects to the cap to make spark those metal things are white n 2 of them look like a little burnt. The rotor is white n looks burnt. Top of rotor where it connects is dark like its burnt I should say n bas is all white. So im guessing cap n rotor need changed n plugs. Any thoughts that coil or dizzy is bad? Idk if it means anything but the rotor spins freely also when u crank the key

I had the same problem my civic sounde like a damn Subie and it would shut off when I came to stops in neutral it was my cap and rotor though

Re: 01 gsr problem...need help
 

Mine just doesn't start lol. I took ignition coil out n the rotor. Rotor looks burnt so since I work at pepboys ima buy my parts cheap lol ima change plugs cap rotor n ign coil in hopes cause I have no spark period

Re: 01 gsr problem...need help
 

Attempting to start the engine with the cap off (and leaving the main plug connected) can lead to burning up the coil. I know that happened to me with a brand new coil.

I hope you unplugged the distributor before cranking it up with the cap off. Otherwise, if the coil was good, it is quite possibly fucked now.



And why can you not check the resistance of the coil?
It is super easy and takes like 30 seconds with a DMM.

Can't check since I dont have the tool. N yes dizzy was unplugged. Rotor n cap look burnt up. Look kinda white n where the rotor touches the cap it looks pretty burnt
