So the car ran and drove fine for a couple days and then i was about to put it in my garage and it died. it didnt really sputter as if it was out of gas just suddenly stopped. i checked for spark and there is none. the coil has power but there is no power at any of the pins on the distributor which leads me to believe something in the wiring is bad or the ecu is fried somehow and power is not sent to the distributor to inturn send signal to the coil. i checked with a timing light to see if there was power through the wire from coil to distributor and there was none. so the coil is maybe bad but it might just not be getting the signal from the distributor. im extremely pissed about it all because i just got it running.

Also on another note did anyone else have a problem closing there hood after completing a swap. for some reason my hood is not able to close past the first latch. i think it is hitting my radiator but it is the stock radiator in the stock location so i dont understand why that would cause a problem. again any input is appreciated. thanks alot

ya my battery is a brand new optima red top but alternator could deffinetaly be bad. ill look into that.

Anyways update with even more bad news. Cylinders 1,2, and 4 are dead. they dont even flicker the compression test. cylinder three jumps around. it will sometimes read 155 and sometimes only a mere 55. this sounds like my timing jumped. if my timing had jumped would that effect the spark at all. could this be a possibility of why i have no spark. Also ive read this before but dont remember, are the 3sgte motors a 0 tollerance motor or no. could any of my valves possibly been bent.



All of this sounds like a new battery that got killed by a dying alternator.
You need to have a perfectly fresh charged battery to do a compression test. Since yours is only sitting at 10v, it doesnt have enough power to even perform an accurate compression test.

Swap out the battery with a fresh one from another car, and try to start it.
