No spark-, Dizzy is okay, wires okay, plugs okay, fuel okay. Options

[travisxcore]

So I already checked the dizzy (but if worse comes to worse I can try a new one for free), and I had a spare set of wires and plugs I tested with. I checked the cap and rotor both of which are perfect.

I don't know of any way to check the igniter but I'm thinking it could possibly be that so I might go to the junkyard and pull one to test with.

I've also heard the MAF, low oil pressure, TPS, and the knock sensor can keep it from sparking also. But I believe these would also cut fuel too? Which I'm getting plenty of...haha.

Anything else I should check? I need to see if its throwing any codes but I didn't have any time today to check.

How do you know you have no spark? If its not the igniter,coil,wires,plug,dizzy and have no spark you have a wiring problem or your ECU is cooked.


Keep in mind you when checking spark you need to ground the plug. So have someone try and start the car, pull a plug with a wire on it and make sure you touch the engine block or something that is grounded to the bolt area on the plug.
