i have an 89 b2 and it was running fine until i took the distrubitor cap off and now it will not fire back u. i have the diagram for the fireing order so i no thats not it. any suggestions please let me know.

I have had this happen to me after I replaced my cap, rotor, and ignition module. Check the hold down bolt at the base of the distributor and see if it is loose at all, if it is you may have turned the distributor and knocked it out of timing. I had bumped mine and it took forever to start, once I got it started I just used a timing light to fix it.

thanks. how did u get it to start. did u just wiggle it.

The way it work for me was, I just cranked it a lot until it started and was running poorly. then turned the distributor a little until the engine sounded better. After that I used a timing light to get the correct timing.
