Hey i am new to the website. I really need to find out what is wrong with my car. I have a 1992 Mazda mx-3 18.L V6. I have tried everything to get spark in the car. First i Checked the disributor and theres power going to it but no spark at the plug. I read up that these engines are common for ignitors going or distributors. Well im under the impression that an ignitor is int eh distributor am i right? Well so i got another distributor from a scrap yard to see if thats the problem. Well that did nothing there was still no spark. Car someone please help me out because i do not have the money to bring it to a machanic i have to pay for collage in sept. If anyone can help thanks

The distributors on the V6 engines tend to fry the coil. The solution is to get another distributor from a known running engine or buy new from the parts store. Also if you replace the rotor make sure you mark the firing tab location on the shaft ! There are 3 ways to install the rotor only one of them is right. For more information on the distributor problem and some solutions see the MX6/626 section or visit MX-3.com and search Distributor mod.

Same issue here as well. Same car, same year, same motor.. Ended up being the distributor/coil/ignition module. Everywhere I've read, yes, they are common problems in the V6 MX3. Unfortunately, a refurbed one at an auto-parts store costs around $500. If you are lucky, you can find one at a junkyard. If not, Google it til you find the one I found for $130 with free shipping. (Sorry, I never bookmarked it) The same distributor is interchangeable as follows:
Ford Probe GT 2.5L 93-94 626 V6 These cars are hard to find too! Goodluck! P.S.- Heard also that the 93 MX6 is interchangeable too, but I didn't add it to this list because I never confirmed it... give it a shot too
