Great video and That is exactly what was wrong with my 1993 honda civic dx sedan as the car would not turn over to start up and sometimes it would start but would take really long. I pulled the cap and rotor out and its was really bad. The inside terminals on the cap could barely be seen LOL. That is how much build up they had. Thanks for the video and I will do this until I order my new MSD ignition cap and rotor setup. I installed new NGK plugs and wires too not a bad idea to do while your already under the car. Thanks for the upload helped a lot!
@@joshuagraham6644 that can be a multiple different things. Plugs wires dizzy low compression. Fuel can cause some hesitation. First thing I would check is fuel pressure. Bad fuel Injectors can do it as well... Then spark. Vacuum leaks can cause hesitation as well.
Fuel system and emission system issues can cause misfire as well as a dirty air filter and many other things. Check the codes from the OBD computer if you can. Sensors are the most common I see causing issues. Your OBD computer should be able to tell you pretty directly if it's a sensor. Other issues might take a little bit of detective work to narrow down if working on cars is not your specialty. Good luck!
This works for cap and rotor issues with corrosion/ deposit build up. For further issues in this area, check and replace the ignition coil. They go hand in hand👍
@@ArthurSperotto yes it was, but some ppl would like to see the before and after views so that they can compare or identify certain scenarios to their own. Bottom line is knowing that corrosion or build up of any kind on electrical parts needs to be cleaned. 👍
@@williamnagel2654usually, the backfire occurs when the car gets super close to turning over, but dies out due to loss of spark ( dirty cap and or rotor ) Cars can back fire due to stuck egr valves ect... a car trying to turn over with adequate fuel level, but minimum to know spark can cause a back fire.
