My 1994 automatic celica is and always has been failing on me. i attempt to start the car and i hear the engine turn over for a second than it shuts off. My mechanic who is insanely hard to reach told me the distributor is bad. I just changed the distrubutor cap but it still does not work.
So now a few questions,

1. Do i need to replace my whole distributor?
2. If so, is this a hard tasks to achieve?
3. How much does a whole distributor kit for a 1994 celica cost?
4. If this is not the problem, any suggestions of what it could be?

Please, don't bash me or anything. My car and i are not getting along for the past 5 years. Any help would be awesome! Thanks all

when u replaced the cap, did u pull out the spark plug boots? if so, make sure they are in the correct order. the cap should be numbered to match the cylinders. the order of the cylinders from left to right is 1-2-3-4 i believe. someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed?
