Check the Reference and Speed Sensors for continuity. Replace if bad. $100 ea, the car will die and everything else works great.


Motor turns strong but wont start.
Both fuel pumps are working , The fuel pressure is good.

I checked the coil and voltage to coil, spark plugs,wires,cap and rotor i even checked injectors it's all very good but , there is electricity going to my spark plugs
Do these car have voltage regulator?
Could it be my DME (computer)?



Also check flywheel pin. If it breaks, it won't give any signal to your speed and reference sensors. Hopefully, this is not your problem. Good Luck!!
