Bad Coil or what?

[98evoIIIpwr]

Alright, Tried to find this on the forums but no luck. I am not gettin any spark from the coil to the plug wire. I checked power to the coil and its good. When I do a test on the spark plug wire I do not get spark. I am not sure if a sensor being disconnected would cause this problem. I tried both coil packs and get the same issue. I have tried turning the cas around and still no luck. I know that the wires are good and the coils were working before i changed the motor in the car. I am not sure what else could cause the spark to get this far but not to the plugs. I have double checked everything else. I am not sure due to the motor swap if I am missing a sensor but I believe that they are all pluged in. If anyone knows what could cause this problem please let me know.

Alright, I left a few things out and I wanted to make sure that I put them in. I swapped an evo III motor into my car. Instead of using the CAS off of the evo I changed the cam on the intake side to use the 2G CAS. The evo uses the one similar to the 1G. I tested the entry to the coil and I am getting continuity but nothing coming out. I double checked all of the sensors and they seem to be intact. CAS and Crank sensor seem to be O.K., but I only checked them with a test light (not sure if that is good enough). I get power to the ignitor. There was a little (capacitor) on the end of the intake manifold that got broken but I heard that was only for noise reduction. It shows in the wiring schematics that that is used in the ignition system. I am not sure if this little thing would affect my car not starting but maybe. Sorry for being so in depth I just want anyone who can answer me to know the details. I might of left something out with all that ive done. Any help would be appreciated. Cant wait to use the DSMLink.

The capacitor is mainly for noise reduction but it also helps energize the coil each time the power transistor fires (provide energy to the coil primary for a faster field collapse). If it's damaged it could short and definately prevent ignition. Disconnect it and see if you get spark (it may be weaker w/o it). But replace it either way.

Yeah I will definetly try that. Unlucky me that its a special order part. Ill try the junk yard and see if they have one. I hope thats the problem because i cant seem to find anything else that would stop it from working. Would the TPS stop the car from getting spark or just fuel? I have DSMLink and I am thinking about hooking it up to see if it shows any CEL's that i can get some info off of. I didnt want to hook it up until i got all the bugs worked out but maybe it will help me work them out. Thanks again any info would help

Alright I changed the capacitor or condensor whatever u want to call it. I had no luck with that. I guess its supposed to help with noise and stuff but I thought it would hold charge for the coil (well i was wrong). I also changed the ecu thinking maybe mine was bad but still the same issue. So now I know what doesnt cause the car from getting spark to the coil, but not what causes it to get spark. I thought the cas would stop it but i get fuel. supposedly when you dont get spark and fuel thats the issue. I am getting fuel.. boy does that walbro shoot some fuel across the garage . Anyone with any suggestions, ill try anything right now.
