so this weekend i changed the valve cover gaskets on my 94 mazda 626 & afterward it had poor acceleration & i heard a clicking noise by the distributor..

(probally really stupid to do), but i pulled a wire off the distributor while the car was running & it shocked me , turned off, & wouldn't start back up...is there any specific thing that could have been burned out by that?

check for spark by pulling a spark plug out and putting the spark plug wire on the plug, grounding the plug to the engine, and cranking the engine. my guess is you wont find any spark. you more than likely blew the ignition coil

Yea, I get no spark at all...damn, I was afraid of that, ignition coils for these cars are expensive as hell! Guess I'm gonna have to try one from the junkyard and see what happens..

Yea, I don't trust junkyard parts very much, but right now I have practically no money & junkyard parts with warranty would be my best bet right now...

Fuses/relays are fine...I took the distributor apart to check the ignition coil & found what looked like ferrite crumbs in there though?

*Update* I replaced the dist. internals & got it running again, but i still have rough acceleration & very little power...I also hear a small "clicking" sound coming from cylinder #6 area. any ideas of what it could be?

I am going to throw this out there because i just got my car out of the shop 2 days ago. I was having issues with my throttle and they said i probably needed my throttle body cleaned and if that didnt work replacing my throttle body, which would have been about $800 for my Mazda 3.

But they cleaned and its running a little better now but from what I read once you get your throttle body cleaned it takes a while for the computer to get up to speed. :shrug:
