Report: Engine Problems Due to Pickup/Iginition Coil Failure Inside Distributor
Toyota Paseo Problem
Model Years Affected: 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997
Engine Affected: 1.5L 4 Cylinder
Average Mileage: 188,166 mi (175,000 mi - 204,500 mi)
The ignition coil inside the distributor can fail. There will be a hesitation on acceleration, especially when the vehicle is warming up on cold, rainy days. The pickup coil inside the distributor can also fail and cause a no-start condition. There have also been some failures of the radio noise suppressor inside the distributor, which can short out. Our technicians recommend replacing the whole distributor with a complete, genuine Toyota distributor if any of its components fail.

I have the same problem. It snowed this morning and the dew point is up, and the car won't start. I'm going to buy a distributor.
