1994 Mazda Protege Won't Start
Ok my roomate owns a 1994 Mazda Protege LX with a 1.8 DOHC 4 banger in it. He doesn't have much for mods (besides a CAI) but all of a sudden after a cold snap hits it won't start (in either warm or cold weather now) When the engine cranks over it doesn't sound like it's firing on all cylinders. His cap, rotors, wires,plugs and coil are all good, we tested them. We are pretty sure its his distributor which is bad. Its a hall effect sensor type and I've heard that they are bad. Since I don't know the actually wiring pinout of it, I can't fully test it. Should we buy one and replace it? We know for 100% its not a fuel problem, it has cleaned injectors in it and it's getting plenty of fuel pressure (almost 40psi).
