Distributor cap
 

A freind of mine was working in my car today, who himself is a mechanic. He had gotten a electrical shock from touching the distributor cap. Is there a problem, is it grounding out ?

It means the cap is bad. Replace it.

Thanks, I just called the parts store, they had told me that the are notorious for corosion on the inside, Geez it's always something with these Z cars, but after 7 of them I still LUV em !!!!

most aftermarket caps are crap. buy it new from Nissan.

....... should do new rotor and wirez too..... if they're old.

of course, always do a complete job, that way you dont leave anything to forget about.
