Please save my car!

I'm stumped. This is my car's last chance. I keep on blowing up igntio coils every five days and i'm on igntion coil number 5 now. What happens is my car will just shut off without any warning, no lights no sounds just off. Car won't restart after that. Check for spark at the wires and no spark. Replace the igntion coil and the car runs for almost exaclty five days. After i am finished with this post, i am gonna go replace evry igntion part of my car, the coil, ICM, ign switch, cap, rotor, plugs, and wores and if this doesn't work, goodbye 4 gen. Please any advice? I stumped, the other techs at work are stumped, and we have no idea what the hell is wrong with the car. PLEASE SAVE ME.

I think you need a whole new distributor. My stock motor went through the same shit. I replaced the coil and it worked fine for like a week then it died. So i replaced the dist. and everything is all good.

It sounds to me like it ign sys is grounding out somewhere......

Yup...what mellowboy said..also...igniters go bad in our cars and can look like a bad coil. Get a dizzy from the junkyard (igniter is inside the dizzy)

Good Luck

Already got a new igniter and still no spark.

Then go with a whole new distributor.

just drop a d16z6 in it :D

Just went outside and did some tests. I have spark but not everytime. I held a test light on the negative coil and the light strobed when the engine was cranked. Did it again no light. I'm thinking my base is cracked. Damn those things cost some money. $398 my price from honda $198 from Autozone, time to find a junkyard.

Yea, I was real lucky. Ive had to get a new one twice and I keep going back to the same junk yard. All they want is $15 each time!

if its your distributor you could ahve thrown a bearing

Thanks for everyones help.
