Not getting a spark

[GUY]

I'm pretty sure my problem is that my motor isnt getting a spark, but heres what happend. i was drivin home, the car was sputtering a lil' bit then i was doin 40mph and the car died? i tied to pop the clutch to roll start it and it didnt want to stay on. all my electronics are working. so when i try to start it it wont start. i belive its not getting a spark. i replaced the plug wires last week, put new spark plugs in yesterday...and it still wont start. what else could it be? coil?...

u could try u fuses? check thoses? maybe a a coil pack like u said. or check ur plugs maybe re gap em? maybe a short ? or ur ground wire is not gettin a good ground

OK... several things...
Simple things first...
Fuses, relays loose wires around the oil filter housing.
If the ECU does not read oil pressure (or more accurately under 4-5 PSI) it will kill spark. SO a wire falling off the low pressure warning sender will shut you down.

Checked fusues and relays? ALL of them? good move on.
Physically check for spark.
Remove the plugs and do as such...
remove 1/2/3 plug wires from the coil.
Reinstall plug into #4 wire.
Roll down drivers window, leaving the door open.
#4 wire should be long enough for you to crank while putting the prong of the plug against a ground, if not have someone crank while you do it.
Now, please do not be stupid and hold the plug with a bare hand. Hold it by the wire, to the ground.
Look at the spark color? what is it? Post it up.
You also have to swap the plug wire to all the coil terminals.


If you are getting nothing, pull and check the ECU. Smell burnt coffee? nice carbon trails on it? any large stinky blobs?
ECU fine, good move on.

Check the CAS, there are several write up's on how to do it so look them up.
