| Message: | Hi Guys, I in a jamb with this car and the mechanic doesn't know what else to do. We have no spark... the engine turns over and over but nothing ignites. We've replaced both main and fuel relays We've now replaced both sensors for the crank that are on the bell housing We've swapped out the coil for one known to work. He said he's getting positive side power but no trigger (I have no idea what this means) Without wiring diagrams he feels there's nothing else he can do, or doesn't know what else to do. Suggested it is the brain (ECU) but has no way to check it. The tach doesn't jump or move at all while cranking the engine Thoughts? This is the problem I had weeks ago when it just died while driving down the road. Thanks for any help you can give us. Michael [stranded] in MD | ||||
