Alright the distributor that came with my c20xe engine started playing up about 3weeks ago because the cam sensor was lose. i bought another one second hand but this one had a cable tie holding the cam sensor in place. i fitted the second hand one and i managed to drive to asda and back then that one started with the same problem as my old one.

i sent my orignal distributor off to a company call H+H ignition solutions for a full recon got it back and it was mint fitted it to the car and now it it fire at all just tunes over ?? . it has a spark at the plugs and ive also fitted new leads.

im goin to refit the the second hand distributor just 2 see if it starts with it on. it ran like sh*t and would cut out with it on but ill no if its the recond one thats not doin its job.

any advice would be great

cheers :thumb:
