hello everyone, before everyone gets upset, yes i searched, ive searched a bunch of forums and threads for a couple of weeks now
basics-names andrew. i have a 91 s13 coupe with a dual cam. auto chassis with a 5 speed swap. car has fuel but no spark
after my front end accident i bought a koyo radiator and didnt realize that that bung or whatever where the cap goes was damaged, well the cap popped off and shot coolant all over the bay and i think i fried my ecu and distributor.
did some testing, found out i had no spark but i have fuel. tested for fuel by unplugging the line and putting it in a bottle while i cranked. filled up a beer bottle quick.
next i unplugged the coil wire at the ignition coil and cranked, no spark, not even a weak one, checked timing, set everything to tdc, set the rotor to right before cylinder 1
ive bought brand new ignition coil, new ignition chip, an ecu from a running car, distributor from a running car, got an oem radiator from my parts car, and a brand new battery.
still no luck, just cranks and cranks and no spark. checked plugs, i dont think theyre getting fuel. what else can it be? i was thinking i need to change the capacitor at the distributor, but i cant think of what else it can be. relays? all fuses checked out, help please!! i want to fix this so i can start working on my 86 again, anyh help is much appreciated
