There could be multiple reasons for this. The best thing to do is check the cheapest thing first. First, check the spark plugs for black or dark tips. If they show signs of being burnt, replace them. Next, check the spark plug wires for poor conductivity (insulation or frayed wires). Inspect the spark plug wires for gashes, tears, or signs of wearing. If that doesn't solve the problem check the battery voltage and make sure you have properly grounded components. Also check the distributor for proper connection.
alot i dont know the specific amount
I would recommend not running the engine until the fuel is drained. Any amount of petrol/gasoline in a diesel can cause engine or fuel system damage.
I think it draws about 4 Lbs of vacuum.
the compression ignition engine does not require a precise fuel mixture, and so power is controlled by adjusting the fuel flow without throttling the air flow. This (a simplification of course) is a big reason they are more fuel efficient than gasoline (spark ignition) engines. They can also run a wider range (and lower grades) of fuel.
Yes, I put a slight bend (approximately 20 degrees) to the sensor rod to insure that the tip was positioned better in the pilot light. Be sure not to crack the ceramic insulation. The result was a more reliable ignition to the burners.
There were only a few cars in history the "Ignition System" started the car. For Example: The Rolls Royce cars in the early 20 th century had a system that allowed you to quickly advance the ignition lever and the car would start. In modern cars The ignition system starts to make a spark at exactly the right moment when the starter rolls the engine over. The terminoligy we use for how we start cars is due to the use of the Ignition Switch to also control the starter.
coz the engine cant get the required ignition in that low temp

REMOVAL Always remove the ignition coil assembly by grasping at the spark plug boot, turning the assembly 1/2 turn and pulling straight back in a steady motion. # Prior to removing the spark plug, spray compressed air around the coil area and spark plug. # Remove electrical connector from ignition coil. On 3.5L engines, it is necessary to loosen the screws by alternating back and forth. Do not lose the spacers under the coil when loosening the screws. # Remove 2 fasteners from ignition coil. # Remove ignition coil assembly. # Remove the spark plug using a quality socket with a rubber or foam insert. # Inspect the spark plug condition. Always remove the ignition coil assembly by grasping at the spark plug boot, turning the assembly 1/2 turn and pulling straight back in a steady motion. # To avoid cross threading, start the spark plug into the cylinder head by hand. # 3.5L engines tighten spark plugs to 28 N
On top of the engine block when you open the hood you will see black cords attached to your engine block you will need to give a good tug to expose the spark plugs. -Cody
engine off and ignition on: 23 to 31 psi engine at idle: 13 to 20 psi
Depends on the make and type of engine but. Usually between 20 and 40 dollars.
sounds like an ignition coil
on my 92 tracker with 1.6 motor i get about 20 to 21 to the gal.
A 91 Sunbird should be fuel injected and not have a carburetor. It sounds like an ignition problem. No spark. Pull a spark plug wire off and connect a spark tester (between 10 and 20 dollars). Have someone try starting the car and watch the tester to see if it lights. If it does not, then you have a faulty ignition system. It could also be a faulty fuel injector. If the fuel injector leaks, there is too much fuel going into the engine. This can cause a vapor lock in the cylinder(s). Hope this helps.
CAM or Spark? the cam has cogs, they are marked. the disty is not marked, (like all disty) but needs IGnition strobe light ($20 at HF)
