my dude...the distributer sends a spark to the spark plug at the right time..
especially when starting the car... its the main purpose of it...

me and my friend just recently couldnt get his car to start, so i hopped in it threw it in neutral, and rolled down his driveway.. held the clutch in as i got speed(comin out of his driveway and rolling foward at this point)..threw it in first, turned ignition.. and dropped the clutch..it started right up.. noticed a ticking sound on the distributer. my friend of mine is a well-trusted master mechanic, does all tune ups on nascars...i believed him when he said it was the distributer... the starter had volts, battery, wiring, and as well as amps to start it up and it didnt turn over....

i may be wrong...it might not be the distributer but this is a forum for opinions..and in my opinion, this may be it... he has been saying that "everything" we told him to do; all the volts and amps were good..soo my only other guess is that...
