A Distributor cap is the device that the spark plug wires are connected to. It distributes spark from the ignition coil through the wires to each spark plug.

When pressing the gas to go your car wont go?

Assuming the car starts, but the car does not go when you press the gas, it could be: 1) Water in the gas tank -- you can put in a bottle of some "Heat" from the auto parts store 2) Moisture in the distrubutor cap (assuming an older car) -- remove distrubutor cap, spray the inside of the cap with WD-40, wipe, and put it back on. Without anymore information, that is the best that I can do

Then make sure the no. 1 piston is all the way up. now check the position of the rotor at the distrubutor, should be pointing at no. 1 spark plug on the dist. should be mark no. 1 on the cap of the distrubutor.
