the car was running fine the next day wont start has new plugs coil distibuter the spark is yellow white at the plugs and coil spark test . getting fuel because the plugs get soaked with gas

 

you got spark and fuel
the only part would be air or lack of
clogged air filter or malfuctioning mass air flow sensor
but could be weak ignition system

 

the mass air flow senser is sort of fluddering when trying to start it is lke the flapper inside is flipping back and for did put in new air filter. could the igniter be bad because weak spark or could it be the condenser. thanks for the reply[&:]

 

checked the mass air flow meter and it tested fine it is within the ohms that the troubleshooting guide says they should be []

 

i,am still looking for help with my 93 protoge have weak spark witish yellow wont start new coil new plugs new distributer still weak spark can anybody help me with this air flow sensor fine have fuel could it be the condenser or the igniter

 

Are you getting spark at the right time though. Might want to just make sure the timing belt is ok and did not jump a few teeth. Is a fairly quick and easy by just removing the valve cover. At least it would confirm or rule that out.

 

i did put a new timing belt on when the problem started thinkinking that might be what was causing not to start but that didn,t solve it still don,t know why i have a weak spark thank you for your suggestion i would have responded sooner but i,am working a lot of hours and don,t have time to look at my email

 

When installing the new timing belt did you insure that all timing marks were correct? Or did you install the new belt in place of the old one?

The igniter only controls when the coil fires spark with the signal from the pick-up coil. It does not control the intensity. It either works or it does not, no in between.

 

Heywood,
I have 92 Mazda protoge and it does not start either.
I am using the car and it runs great but sometimes when i go on small errands thats when i notice this problem.

It cranks but does not start. I have new time belt and probably other parts work finr as well.
What i have noticed is when it gives me that problem, i can smell a lot of GAS...it also gives out some kind of smoke.

I have a low quality not original mufler.. anyone thinks that it may have to do with it? when i let the car sit for 10 -15 mins and when i try back it starts..
