Between the opti harness and ECM, is it the pink/black stripe, or the red/black stripe wire that is usually the cause of the P1371 code. I called a service dept and the guy told me it was the red/black stripe.
I just replaced distributor No. 4 and still no fire. When i clear the code, it reappears after a few tries. I replaced the harness between the Ignition System Test Connector (ISTC) and the opti unit because of corrosion on the contacts. I replaced the water pump and all hoses just in case.
I am coing to test for continuity between the opti harness and ECM. If it checks out ok, i am ordering the Dynaspark. The brand of the replacement Opti is ACardone. DO NOT BUY THIS BRAND OF ANY PART. I had to warranty out distributor No. 4 and now if everthing is ok on the wires from ISTC to ECM, i am warrantying out No. 5
My brother also bought a ACardone distributor for his 92Z. The bearing seized within 4 weeks of conservative driving. When he removed it, the thing would not even spin at all!! Boycott ACardone!
