I think you meant spark plugs (not coils) looked good two posts ago. The coil is what supplies the spark to each spark plug.

Sounds like a bad igniter or coil. You can check it with a test light to see which one it is also. I had the same problem with my integra and changed igniter and coil in my distributor And she fired up.

I hope it works for you it would be cheaper than changing the
Distributor all together. And just in case you dont know how to change the 2 i can send u the link to a diy video on changing the 2. Also if u dont know how to check the igniter and coil to see if there bad, theres also a O on that to. Just let me know.

I doubt your dizzy is causing all this. Check the resistance on your coil first.

You got to kinda watch through the 19 min. One and it will end up showing you the basics of the the coil and igniter. The second one is to test the firing system. Good luck.

Yeah, I'm a fan of testing things first & not just throwing parts at it.
