Today, we're diagnosing spark issues with the distributor cap on our 1987 AW11 MR2. After realizing the cap isn't distributing spark properly, we dive into testing the cap's resistance and explore possible contact point problems with the rotor. Along the way, we hit a few roadblocks, but that's just part of working on old cars! Stick around as we continue troubleshooting, learn from setbacks, and edge closer to getting this MR2 back on the road.
If you're working on your own project or overcoming challenges, I'd love to hear about it in the comments!
