ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    Car has no spark, but new distributor coil has power, igniter also replaced

    A buddy of mine and I are trying to bring the CB back to life. We replaced the coil as well as the igniter, and the coil was tested and has power to it. The catch, which I find weird, is that both the positive and negative points attached to the coil have power. The coil doesn't seem to be sending power to the plugs, so the car will not start. I'm running an internal coil distributor from a 91 in my 93, and have put a fuse in the plug for the external coil as is suggested.

    Anybody have any ideas?

    Igniter, perhaps? It often fails more frequently than the coil.

      main relay might be melted or cracked at the solder joints.

        sorry found something new that supposes my theory

        at the bottom

        "No spark
        -check at coil, if good at coil replace cap and rotor.
        -test light on positive and with cap off for internal coil, place on negative end of coil. Have someone turn the engine over, the test light should blink rapidly. if no blink or intermittent...check ignitor, positive end of coil for battery source and signal from ecu.
        -if no power at coil + which is the blk/yellow wire, check ignition switch for power and main relay"
