.045" is a good place to start.
inside the distributor cap. there should be 2 sets of plugs that go to your distributor, those plugs go directly into ur ignitions module
The spark travels from the coil to the distributor then from the distributor to the plugs. So if you have spark going into the distributor but not coming out to the plugs, I would blame the distributor cap and rotor being at fault.
that should have the HEI distributor so the plugs should be set at .045
whats the motor.....but regardless if you follow the plug wires they lead to the distributor cap. v6 has 6 plug wires.....one to each plug and all of the on the distributor cap.......v8 has 8 plugs with their wires leading from each plug to the distributor cap
The distributor cap is located where the spark plugs cables are connected .They go from the motor to the distributor cap.
when you remove the dog house it is the first thing you will see right on top of the motor. It is an oddball distributor cap because the points are all in the sides of the distributor cap but that is the only difference. another thing, because it is odd, the cost which you may have guessed is considerably more to replace it but after a while it is worth the extra money. I own a 2001 Chevy express and have recently changed plugs wires and distributor cap and what a difference. this
haynes or chiltons will have this
try your ignition control sensor located in your distributor
its inside the distributor cap should have two-three plugs going to it, it is about the same size as a domino(black).
There is no distributor cap as there is no distributor. There are 3 coil packs, each coil fires 2 spark plugs simultaneously.
There in the heads on the motor
Check your points and condenser. Make sure the timing is right and check if your Cap is bad
