Hi guys, recently i've been having a cranking issue that is getting gradually worse.
No longer starts at all, no spark. In the past 2 weeks ive changed the distributor, Ignition coil, dizzy cap, rotor, starter, leads and plugs. This post has been edited by PolliS_5S-FE: May 11, 2011 - 9:41 PM |

To me it sounds like your Idler control valve has gone bad, this is very common to our cars. The perpouse of the valve is to bypass the throttle body, the throttle body is controlled by your accelerator pedal when you have your foot of the pedal the throttle body is completely closed. When it is closed there is no air going into the engine, thats were the IAC valve comes in, it lets the air enter I'm assuming you also have a rough idle? thats because the valve is filthy and can't maintain a good idle, it maintains a good idle by opening and closing rapidly.
