I had a '91 Mirage with same symptoms... thought maybe it was the coil, but found out that the ECU (computer was bad)... just a thought to check out. May be able to get it scanned at auto zone to see if they can read for defects.
Ignition coils are generally external while pick up coils are generally internal to distributor
Moisture related problems occur in the ignition system. The distributor as well as the internal iginition coil need to be tested.
The solenoids in that Mitsubishi transmission are internal. They are on the valve body.The solenoids in that Mitsubishi transmission are internal. They are on the valve body.
Well, first; whether or not the distributor moves is irrelevant. If the motor is out of time (moving the distributor is how the timing is adjusted), it should still have spark. If no spark is apparent, check the internal components or the coil. Are you sure it is a distributor or a "distributorless" ignition system? If it is computer controlled, a whole different ball of wax needs to be considered. You should probably research the ignition system in your vehicle and find out exactly what it consists of and go from there. good luck
It could be your ignition coil, which is located inside of your distributor cap. Supposedly, the ignition coils in our civics are poor design and lack providing enough power. I have a 95 civic LX, I gave my car a much needed tune-up. My car ran for 5 minutes and just died.The coil just went out. The coil itself is about 80. They also make external ignition coils and modified distributor caps to by pass the internal coil for about 100
If everything is right internally then the distributor does. Rotating the distributor adjusts the exact time the spark plug fires. BUT There is a timing chain and timing marks on the crankshaft and the cam shaft. Then there is an electrical advance from the computer and the internal ignition module and pickup coil inside the distributor. Together these all can effect the timing.
Caps refer to the distributor cap. A distributor cap is used in an automobile's engine to cover the distributor and its internal rotor.
Internal parts are just that,,internal meaning they are inside the engine. If they are not IN the engine they are external parts.
It is internal to the distributor.

The Mitsubishi Gallant does not have a removable transmission filter. It is found within the internal workings of the transmission itself.
