SOURCE: 1992 Toyota 4 runner 3.0 keeps shorting out
While I can't answer your question, I would like to say
that common sense, tells you that after you replace the
dist one time only ,you need to find out what failed down
to the component ,& then you may have your answer
I have never in 50 years replaced a dist
I have had parts inside fail,pulled it after I diagnosed the
most logical part to fail & replaced just the failed part
A wiring diagram just of the ignition system would be a
good place to start,you also need a volt meter & the ability
to use it,or your off the a repair shop
On a vehicle that old I would be checking ALL wires for corrosion & ALL ground wires I could find. Remove every wire you can get at & clean the terminals. Then start some type testing.
Also keep in mine you may have a bad ignition switch
or other issue & not the dist
The problem is that it shuts off,why
If you use Google you may find a way to trigger a spark
without starting the engine & then have someone wiggle
the ignition switch
You have to think outside the box & not change parts
until you find a failed one
I'm sorry but
you have this posted in the wrong product category. Please re-post
the question in the proper category This is the car and truck problem
