WHY On my 4.3 ZR2 the distributor cap and rotor button is new so why do I still have a miss in my engine?

Could be a bad spark plug, a bad spark plug wire, firing order mixed up, or a bad fuel injector if it is 97 or newer.

If the check engine light came on in my 1993 Oldsmobile Bravada then the car stalled out and has no spark changed the rotor tip distributor cap and coil but still has no spark?
make certain your rotor is turning as you try starting it.If you remove the distributor cap and watch your while someone turns the engine over your rotor should turn, if not, you might have a sheard pin on the distributor gear or a broken timing chain or belt.
Which way does the rotor spin in an hei distributor for 72 Chevy 350?
Clockwise. The 72 Chevy 350 engine did not come stock with a HEI unit. No matter, the rotor still spins clockwise.
How do you tell if a 1968 351 timing chain is still good?
Remove distributor cap Have assistant crank engine over Observe whether or not distributor rotor turns as motor turns over
How does a 94 Z28 distributor work. Does it still have a rotor and 8 pins subject to carbon tracking...?
yes it has a cap and rotor. its just located on the front of engine a timing chain cover. it has 8 pins and can be replaced. Also rotor can be replaced.
If the distributor rotor is off by 180 degrees will the vehicle still start on a 1989 jeep wrangler?
No
Why wont my 2000 Chrysler cirrus fire i have changed sparkplugs crankshaft sensor distributor cap rotor button still will not fire?
If you are not getting spark, the distributor is common to fail. It is hard to tell from the question if you changed it or just the cap and rotor. Also, do you have fuel pressure. That could be a fuel pump. If you have neither fuel or fire, that could be aa computer or wiring issue.
What do you do when your car will not start after you replace the distributor?
If the starter is still rotating the crankshaft upon turning the key in the ignition, AND there is a charge from the ignition coil to the distributor, the problem is most likely that 1. The distributor is improperly timed and/or calibrated for the engine in which it is placed, 2. The distributor is the incorrect type for the engine it is attached to, or 3. the mechanical linkages that spin the rotor are defective or incorrectly installed.
91 Dakota engine turns but will not start I changed the spark plugs ignition coil distributor cap and the fuel filter. And it still will not start.?
Check to see if it getting spark/fuel Check rotor
How do you install 1979 Ford 351m distributor?
I'm putting a distributor in my 79 ford 351 modified 400 351 crank but 400 big block .. i know it is off of time and the timing chain is still good .. but how do i time the 1st cylinder with the distributor . how do i get it firing in order ? The firing order of the 351 Cleveland, 351 Windsor, and 400 are all the same at 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8 Rotor turns counterclockwise. Get the #1 piston, which is the piston on the front of the engine passenger side, at top dead center, (TDC) on the compression stroke. Turn the rotor on the distributor to the #1 spark plug on the distributor cap and insert the distributor into the engine. Time the engine with a timing light.
Good spark and fuel pressure and still no start in a 1992 Honda Accord?
try replacing your distributor, distributor cap, rotor, and maybe the spark plug wires.
How do you setdistributer?
On the compression stroke, bring number one cylinder up to TDC (Top Dead Center). Drop in distributor so rotor lines up with number one on the cap. Fasten distributor hold down clamp so that it is snugbut you can still rotate the distributor. Start engine andwith the use of a timing light set the timing to whatever specs the engine calls for. Tighten distributor hold down clamp.
Why does my 1970 k2500 sb 350 backfire through carb new distributor rotor coil etc rotor pointed at number one plug on compression stroke engine starts then dies and the engine runs in revers when di?
Your timing is still off. Turn the distributor....just a very small amount....and try again. Try clockwise and counter clockwise until you get it to start and run. Then get a timing light on it and set the timing where it should be.
