So I married a Camry owner
 
She has a 1995 4 cyl 2200. It won't start, it turns over and attempts it, but then just continues to turn over and not start.
I don't think it is timing belt, I can see the rotor turn when engine turns.
i don't think it's a fuel problem, it smells of fuel.
I do think it is a spark issue, but cannot find a coil to test.
ive seen 2 different types on YouTube, one being an external coil (mounted on strut wall housing), and a cool pack.
This has neither.
Tis the coil internal, or am I needing to find the igniter mounted on the suspension wall.
This is my first time into this engine compartment for anything other than a battery change and replacing the struts.
Downloadable FSM would be nice,
Suggestions accepted.
Thanks

Coil may be in the distributor housing.

Check for spark. Spark should be able to gap at least 1/2 inch of air.

Igniter seldom goes bad.

I fixed it, then it nroke
 
Old coil bad new coil made it run like a top I decided to replace the valve cover gasket, plugs, plug wires, cap, and rotor.
now it runs like a turd..
I did change the o ring at the distributor shaft, maybe I got it 180 out..
I had the firing order wrong, 1342, it sounded like a tool had been left in the engine or a piston was hitting the spark plug.
Wired it correctly 1432, and it runs like a champ again.
thanks toyomoho.
