Default civic 91 stalls and won't start for few minutes!!Help!!

No check engine light! No ecu codes! Just stops running! It is not the ignition switch. I changed the throttle body, ditributer cap and rotor, gas filter and still stalls almost every time I use it. The engine stalls fast but still has current in the car. Help!!!

When the engine stalls and won't restart:

1) Turn key to ON(II), and listen for whether the fuel pump primes for 2 seconds.

2) Check for spark at the plugs. See Spark link in my signature.


My guess is that you will lack spark, which would suggest that you check the igniter unit in the distributor.
