No spark but quick fix for it Options

So a couple weeks days ago I bought a 97st and it has no spark what so ever. I bought new spark plugs, distributor and wires. Installed them and still nothing. Then went and bought a new crank sensor, which by far the easiest thing to do. Took around 20mins total. Tried cranking it over it still do anything. So I was thinking it has to be the fuel pump since nothing is working. My son which is 6 goes dad did you check the fuses? It was the EFI fuse that kept blowing, so I put 30amp fuse in instead of the 15 and on. Runs like a dream.

Moral of the story check your fuses first, it could just be a 10cent fix

And putting a bigger fuse than it should have could just end up being a hundreds of dollars repair.

Check to see why the EFI fuse keeps blowing, you could potentially melt wiring.

yes, this is the worst thing you can do. you are allowing 30 amps of current to pass through wires that are rated for a lower current. you are going to melt wires and have a bigger problem in the future

well i added the 30amp fuse to see if the car would actually run, it does, but was leaking a crap ton of oil, so last night i replaced the oil pan gasket and cleaned everything up, 30minutes later theres oil all over so i dont if it is from the head gasket or what? I plan on taking the motor out and doing a rebuild on it so i know it is done the correct way. It has a funking idle right now, it goes from 1k to 3k like if you were pressing the gas to rev it up but it does it on its own, i have no clue what it causing that. But im reading all the forums i can for a nice rebuild for the 7afe or a 4agze
