Year, make, model and engine size would help, but a bad spark plug, spark plug wire or fuel injector are a few possibilities.

What do you have to do when the piston is a tdc and the distributor is 180 degrees off. do we need to move the distributor?

make sure that the number 1 piston is at tdc on the compression stroke, then look and make sure the rotor is pointing at number 1. if not lift the distributor up and turn it towards the number 1 cylinder and put the number 1 wire on the cap were number 1 is, then wire it 1,8,4,3,6,5,7,2 clockwise It probably means that the piston is between the exhaust and intake cycle and that you need to turn the crankcase 360 degrees. That should put the distributor in the right place.

How do you retract rear brake piston from 1998 Honda prelude sh?

You need to turn (screw, rotate) the piston clockwise in the caliper a large number of times to make it fully retract. You can insert some kind of tool into the indentations in the face of the piston, or grip the very top edge of the piston with pliers in order to turn it. It has to be fully retracted to allow enough space for "new" pads to be installed.


What would make a piston shoot through your engine?

Most likely there was a lubrication failure resulting in an increase in friction causing a catastrophic failure within the engine . The piston , the piston rings , the wrist-pin , or a bearing failure not receiving enough lubrication caused a piston to exit the block . Metal on metal = a thrown rod which is connected to the piston and the connecting rod is connected to both the piston through a wrist-pin and connecting rod connected to the crankshaft . See video tutorial below .
