Ok guys...ive tried everything i know... My car isnt getting any spark... it has new coil(tried external and internal), new ignitor, tired new distributor internals and new ECU but still dont have spark. I know my ECU isnt bad b/c i used on my friends h22eg and his car started right up w/ no problems...Does anybody know what the problem could be? The car wants to start and it turns over..just no spark...PLEASE!

 

Damn, you replaced all that crap already. You gotta get back to the basics before you spend a butt load on parts that won't fix the problem. Do you have a wiring diagram? I Highly recommend you get one. Anyway, take your voltmeter and check that you have voltage at the correct terminals of the ignitor and the positive of the coil. Ohm out the pickup coils. check for a good ground at the ignitor ground terminal. check to see that there is intermittant voltage at the coil's primary negitive terminal, a test light is good for this. Just narrow it down by determining what is good.

 

well mang..ive already gotten a test light and for some reason im getting power at my ground wire at my coil? wtf is up w/ that?...my harness is grounded good and ive taken it open to check for shorts in the harness from the dizzy wire to the harness ground and to the wall harness (like i said the harness looks fine). What else should i look for and where can i get a wiring diagram?

 

did you just put the motor in? Check the grounds on the engine harness.

 

sorry you beat me.

I really need some help on this!!!

 

welp guys...its been 3 long weeks since i last drove the beast and guess what....it was a F@#$ing fuse...WTF?!?!?! dont get me wrong but...WTF...who would ever think of the ecu fuse in the engine bay fuse box? obviously not me.....lol...dont know why it blew but it did...replaced it...reinstalled my distributor (w/ new coil and ignitor) and the damn thing started right up! Hopefully the ice will be melted down enough tom. at noon so i can take it around the block ....im so damn happy right now!!!!!!!! Thanks for all of the help in gettin it running...even though it was only a fuse...lmao...

 

Now I could have swore that 2 weeks ago when you first had this issue, I asked if you had checked ECU fuse, and you replied yes.

Oh well, see if I try to help you anymore(LOL )

 

**** im having the same sort of problem... brand new dizzy, i could have wiring problem, doubt it, fucken starter is just turning slowly.. and my fuses under the hood and in the car are fine.. odnt know about relays and ignition wires though

nawp mang..you told me to check the pulse at the ignitor and check the ecu..not the fuse...hell i didnt even know the ecu had a fuse...lmao...but its cool bro..guess it was just not meant to run until now...oh well

 

Oh well, you win some you lose some. Sorry I didn't suggest it earlier, would've saved you a lot of time. I don't know why I thought I had asked you before. I went over all of the posts on this matter and you're right, I didn't suggest it.

Sorry

But I've very glad you got it running again

Let me know if I can ever help you with anything else though...
