Opel astra kadett alarm won't sound

There could be a number of reasons why your 1992 Opel Kadett Cub is taking a long time to start, even after replacing the starter. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the problem:

1. Check the battery. Make sure the battery is fully charged and in good condition. If the battery is weak or damaged, it may not have enough power to start the engine.
2. Check the ignition system. A faulty spark plug or ignition coil could cause the engine to misfire and not start. Check the spark plugs and ignition coils and replace them if necessary.
3. Check the fuel system. A faulty fuel pump or clogged fuel filter could cause the engine to not start. Check the fuel pump and fuel filter and replace them if necessary.
4. Check the fuel pressure. Low fuel pressure can cause the engine to not start. Check the fuel pressure and make sure it is within the manufacturer's specifications.

If you have checked all of these things and the problem persists, it is possible that there is an issue with the engine itself, such as a problem with the valves or cylinders. I recommend having a mechanic diagnose the problem in order to determine the cause and recommend the appropriate repair. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

well that firing order is wrong!
an Opel Kadett 200ie, 1996
no country told and 15 engines used world wide this car.
last one in UK is 1995
so I guess it is not UK?
sold under 11 names world wide.
IN UK it is really a Vauxhall Astra Mk II. badged as Opel. now that is confusing.
not diesel, but petrol AND ALL ARE INLINE 4 BANGER'S.
every car made ,every manual for for them in print tells you 2 answers ( distributors)
1: lost all distrib setting
2: or not lost SETTINGS, Crank not turned.

so read that book it tells you to do this.

SPIN ENGINE TO SEE DISTRIB ROTOR ROTATION CCW OR CW/? (HOLD THAT THOUGHT)
by hand
set crank pulley TO TDC ,-0 DEGREE'S AND BOTH VALVES CLOSED #1 CYLINDER. (CALLED FIRING)#1
CAP OFF. MARK ROTOR #1 TO DISTRIB BODY
THEN CAP ON AND MARK #1 ON CAP.
PUT #1 WIRE TO #1 CAP
AND 1,3,4,2, IN CW OR CCW DIRECTION SEEn ABOVE. at FIRST STEP.

DONE car runs.
if distributor was pulled there are 15 engine answers.

next time on all cars made on earth with HV spark wires
do them 1 at a time. and win.
distribs or any car with HV spark wires seen (sets)

Remove battery negative connection for 20 minutes, replace and unlock drivers door with the key. Then try and start it

Hi Alex, The ignition assembly is mounted onto the steering column with blind bolts. These are special bolts designed in such a way that the heads break off when tightened to the correct torque. We usually remove them with a cold chisel and hammer. An alternative is to cut a slot into which a screw driver can be fitted. Regards John

Check the tank vent hoses on the filler pipe in the wheel arch, if the show hair cracks replace the lot up and down the tank, very common problem with the Kadett.

do you have coil trigger on either wire to the coil? if so then apply 12 volts to the other wire to see if car will start.

try changing the ignition module thats mounted under the coil ,well it was on the kadett and the astra which came out about the same year which i think this american named vehicle did so they could be the same vehicle

please specify the actual year of this vehicle as the opel kadett was stopped in about 93 and the astra introduced ,in europe anyway so please state the exact year and build country as this can vary as well ,been caught out on this before with ford escort ,and a californian model that bears no resembelence to a europeon model of the same year

I want help to connect opel kadett alternator wiring
