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.
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👍
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!
@@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.

You should change the cap and rotor regularly, every year.
Can this also cause engine hesitation under load if it is a corroded cap and rotor
absolutely
Marcus Frostenson my reluctor is all kind of rusted up. Found my no spark issue.
Ahaa exsplain why my 89 accord lx missing randomly under load

New plugs n wires new ignition coil. Weber 3236 carb. Found a crack in dizzy cap si replacing it n rotor button today
stright up thanks hope your veiws grow
Nice work
Thanks
Good Video.
I did that runs good once warmed up but miss fires and runs like hell when it's cold
Mine does the same
Same so you follow this method to solve your issue?

mine does the opposite
someone said clean them with bakingsoda watcha u guys think try it or not?
I put a new cap and rotar but i still get a misfire....what else can it be pls?
Replace the distributor also and make sure is in the correct timing
Possibly spark plugs and plug wires. Are all plugs wired correctly? Is your timing off?

Thank you!!!
Awesome

Cheers!
You made the video AFTER everything was cleaned and scraped and polished ... ???
Still very helpful.

You are the best fucking awsome
Como poner a tiempo mi gran cherokee 6 silindros
I HAVE NEVER SEEN BACK FIRING FROM A BAD CAP AND ROTOR.
Lucky you.
@@ArthurSperotto it is not luck

Appologies... I meant No spark instead of know spark lol
Buy a new cap and rotor very cheap
Or sand it down for free
Buy a new cap
