No Spark At The Plugs Or Distributor?
I replaced the distributor and crankcase position sensor with new ones. I thought I had a bad coil in the old distributor but after replacing the distributor (new coil, camshaft sensor, cap and rotor button) I still had no spark to the plugs. I have 12.56 volts and 11.67 volts on the two pin plug at the distributor. I have 12 .54 volts on one pin and several voltages on 5 pins at the six pin plug at the distributor when the key switch is turned on. Where do I go now to see why I am not getting a spark at the Plugs?
