Running issues!!!! 93 s13 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I left my car outside without a hood and it rained pretty hard. I started the car right up and it immediately died. I could crank away for days and it would turn over fine, but wouldn't run.

I went to autozone and grabbed new plugs, wires, cap, rotor and coil. Car fires right up, idle is great but it sputters and if I WOT it bogs down and will die.

I have a MSD box installed along with the msd coil. Any words of advice???

ALSO- I read online the temp sensor that sends the signal to the ECU can cause these issues. I remembered my check engine light would come on if you wiggle that wire. Could this be related??

EDIT- FYI I did check for spark before the coil, after the coil and after the distributor. All of which have spark. We are going to bypass my MSD box and see if maybe the box is the culprit of a weak spark maybe? These things are damn near weather proof though.
