I guess one of the throttle position sensors is dual purpose. there are 2 on the back and one on the front. Apparently (I am told) that one is also linked to the tach. I was also told that they DO intermittently fail.

Other than that I couldn't see why you get no spark. I must have missed the earlier post because I thought it might be your main fuel system relay. Since you have pretty much replaced your ignition system I can't blame that :)

Thanks, where are the throttle positions sensors located?
