Ok, my firing order is way off by the books standard, but when I move the wires 180 degrees around, it'll start. When it's right, it'll just backfire. Any ideas on why it does this? And when it's running, it keeps missfiring every now and then. One more idiotic problem to diagnose, my brakes will not stay bled. I bleed them, then they stop working after a while. I don't have any leaks that I've noticed someone told me the master cylinder might be out. Any ideas? Actually, one more stupid question. My reverse lights refuse to work. They worked at one time, but now they don't and I've changed my fuses but they still don't work. Any ideas on that?
Find Top Dead Center and re-stab you distributor and put the wires where they should go Master cylinder might be bad Check the light bulbs to see if they are burned out
Replace master cylinder its leaking inside. Same problem I had and I replaced the master cylinder. The brake lights could be the brake switch going out. I agree with rthomas771 with the distributor.
I wud replace the MC as suggested by those B4 me, also replace wheel cylinders and hoses if you have not done so. I wud also replace disk/drums if necessary. Nothing more important than stopping. NOTHING. As far as the reverse light not workin; check the contact points in the socket for corrosion and check the ground for nc or poor grounding.
I checked the ground it looks like it's grounding fine, and I have one fuse slot in my box that looks like the guy before me caulked a wire in there, should I remove it and put a fuse in? And does anyone have a diagram of the fuse box for which fuses do what?
