why dont you check your ecu fuse sounds like that could be the problem its in the engine bay in the main fuse box not under your dash.

what do you mean your stereo goes off when turning your headlights on?? when turning off your lights does your stereo go on?? did you hook up a new stereo system there?? if you did that means there's a short somewhere or something isnt wired up correctly. do you sometimes jump start your car?? if thats the case......"OPEN CIRCUT" try to check your wirings.

hope next time you put more details on this...it will help us to help you diagnose and fix that problem of yours. Good luck.

How would you check to see if the Dist. is sending out a spark? Just pull out the pulg and crank it over and if you get shocked it's working, or what? Also, what gap distance do you guys run? What type of plugs? Splitfire? Bosch Plats?
