I have had my samurai for about a year. I use it as a vehicle for kicking around at the ranch. It has always run great. About 3 months ago it would stop running. It would run all day and then all of a sudden stop. I would wiggle the distributor cap plugs and the thing would fire back up.
Just the other day I tried my old trick and the Sammy would not start. Upon checking the distributor cap wires I found water corrosion. So I have replaced the following:
-distributor cap
-distributor cap plug wires
-distributor spindle
-coil
After replacing all of these the little Sammy still will not run. I marked all the wires when I took them off and believe that I put them back on in the correct firing sequence. Even when I try to push start and pop the clutch the engine will not turn over. Could this be a fuel pump, or timing problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
