Yeah so today i go out to my car and start it and let it idle for 15-20 minutes to hope that i fixed everything from it stahling. Well after the 20 minutes it dies. I ask my dad to come out and go in the car i pull the 4 th cylinder plug wire put a screw driver in the plug wire to the connect and put it to a ground and the car starts right up. Is this a distributor, plug wire, or ignition coil problem?:ugh:

um it might be the wire itself not reaching down enough to make a good connection with the plug, try another wire then, check the dist.

What?

Maby it's because I'm tired, but I've having a hard time understanding what you are talking about.

My guess is replace the dist cap and rotor.

Unless your plugs are old as dirt. Then, common since should come into play here.

Rarely does the whole distributor go out. But more often does the coil or magneto.

wow im neither tired or drunk but dont understand what your talking about, by the sounds of it, if your using a screwdriver to complete a connection, id say you need new wires. btw STALL say it S - T - A - L - L. Save the H for Hospital, Hotel, and Stihl.

Do a favor to your car and replace all of the parts you mentioned, they are all service parts anyway.
