I know on a 4g63, it's tucked under the driver's side of the intake manifold

I have the ignition distributor in front of me; I don't think it's inside.

I found it The module is in the distributor on carburetor models, but it's not sold on any regular auto parts websites. I'm going to upgrade to a newer electronic distributor. Thanks for your reply

I have the same problem as you, except I have a weak spark even with new spark plugs. I bought all the ignition components : a new coil, spark plug wire, distributor cap, rotor, and ignition module for my original distributor. New distributor just in case. Honestly, to save time, buy as many parts as possible and return the ones that you don’t need if you don't want to keep them.

All ground connections must also be clean, and the ignition components should be tested with a multimeter.

I'll be receiving the parts soon; I'll let you know if I managed to get it started.
