I pulled my engine, to put new gaskets all over it. I put it all back together, and had it running, but the timing was off a little bit. The distrubtor was maxed out turning it wise. So i pulled it out turned it a few notches, and put it back in. and not it it will not fire. The coil is getting fire. Its a brand new coil, and distbutor. new plugs, wires.. please help me out, i depend on this mazda for everyday use. its a 1989 Mazda B2600i 4x4. 2.6 Liter Fuel Injected.
