Help Asap !
I took my cap and rotor off . I got the new rotor on , no problemo ! But the cap when it goes on , it wants to move from side to side ( only in one direction) it moves from east to west . How do I get this fu(K*r to go on there tight .I had this problem when I took off my cap a few weeks ago to check it out , but on the third try I got it to fit right .

No problem. The reason the cap isn't going on right is because it's not seating around your spark module correctly. That's the square cutout on the bottom of the cap, where the two-pin and four-pin connectors come out. Look at the module (with the cap off) with a flashlight- you'll see a groove. The cap should fit in this groove. Usually it involves lifting the cap straight up, and putting it back on "straight down". If you can crawl on your fender so you can see the groove and the cutout of the cap, you should be able to get it on.
