Pullin out of the driveway and car just died.
checking everything over and no spark.
Any ideas? Dizzy? coil? ECU? wiring?
suggestions???

 

Just shut off or what? will it crank? More details?

 

cranks over
no spark. has power goin to dizzy and power to the coil
AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH frustrating

 

Fuel? pump bad maybe?

 

changed coil and it fired up and ran for about 10 minutes now sounds like its down a hole but when i pull a wire it nearly dies.
so it has spark and is technicaly running but not well and it spudders almost like a blown headgasket but compression is good no smoke out exhaust and no loss of fluids at all!
If it not one thing its another

 

Any CEL codes? You might want to have the igniter unit tested. How do the plugs, wires, cap, and rotor look?

Have you checked the mechanical timing?

 

no codes plugs ok, cap and rotor new, wires a little haggered
havent checked timing yet
how would i check the ingniter?

 

Consider replacing the old wires.

Take the igniter unit to an auto parts for testing. This is generally a free service.

 

yeah after i check timing, rule out everything else i'll get new plugs!

 

wires were bad. put a new set on and its smooth as silk now.
