Default No Spark

Ok I know could have search but theres alot and don't fell like running all around. I've tried everything to get my car back and running. I'm not getting any spark from my distributor. I know the distributor is good tested it. Tried another good ECU still no luck. Where else can my problem be? In the harness I really dont think so I've tested it twice now and tested my ECU harness into the shock tower harness so what else can it be. The blue and black/yellow wire are for the main power of the distibutor correct. Could this be where my problem lies because thats all I can think of. I tested one wire stright into the coil and it was showing 12 volts when cranked it lost all voltage and still no spark.
TIA
Randy

How did you test your distributor? Did you check your fuses?

I tested the Distibutor by taking it off a running car. It was a 90 Teg. It wasn't throwing any codes so its a good distributor. I tested the power to the black and yellow wire and its getting about 12 volts also tested A18 pin to B15 and B17 and there is about 10 volts which is also correct. Any other ideas to test??

Is it the stock motor or a swap? If it is a swap what motor are you running?

Yeah its a swap. Z6 in a 90 STD. It ran fine for 2 months then up and quit. Grounds are all good. Tried a total of 3 distribuors and 2 different ECUs distributors were from a 90 teg a 90 SI and a EX. ECUs were 88 teg and 90SI still no spark. The coil is getting 12 volts (the black and yellow wire) but its just not sparking and I took it off of a running car seen the car run.
