Hey, sorry for the long reply time,
Yes, it does have both fuel and spark, the spark is a little weak, it's red/orange rather than blue. I have the transmission out of the car right now, when I removed the bellhousing I noticed the ground strap from the back off the head to the firewall has completely come loose so maybe thats my problem, however I thought haing solid motor mounts might have grounded he engine enough themselfs to negate that issue, dunno, we'll see what happens when I get it back together in the next few days.
FYI if anyone has any issues with their manual trans call D&D performance, those guys are awesome and a wealth of knowledge!
