86 with no spark (help)
 

I've got an 86 that just stalled without warning.Now it has no spark. Changed the coil no luck. It also has a new rotor ,new wires,cap,plugs. Anyone have any ideas of where to go from here?

Re: 86 with no spark (help)
 

how did you go about checking for spark?

Check power to coil and see if your negative side of the coil is getting a pulse. Another quick check is to disconnect the PIP. if it sparks then, most likely module.

I pulled a plug out, reconected it to the plug wire and turned it over.(It's too cold out to spend any more time than needed).What is pip,and I don't have an ohm meter to test the neg side of the connector of the coil connector.

relucter
 

I no that at one time back in 86 in fact it was so cold out that my 83 gt cracked the relucter in the distributor (same as point's) and I changed (what they called the spark box ) rotor ,and cap . I had a small crack in it an the spark was going to ground . ;)
