I bought a 93 Eclipse with a 4g37 1.8L The wiring is turn spark I have fuel but no spark. And IDK if my ECU is blown or if this alarm system would cause this problem. If I delete the alarm I can turn it over, is this causing no spark?

I'm getting fuel but no spark. They guy I bought the car from says something about the alarm system? A lot of forums don't mention that they diagnose most spark issues on this engine to be the ECU but does anyone know if the alarm system would having anything to do with it I wouldn't think so.
 
Your going to have to give us more info if you want help bro, and please type so we can understand. Thx

I'm sorry auto correct. The alarm system was removed, and I bypassed it and it cranks over. I have fuel but no spark. I read what causes no spark on these engines is the ecu. So I pulled one out of a eagle talon in salt lake city with no security system ( if that matters) and I'm hooking it up now.
 
I figured out the problem, it was the black and yellow wires you put together to bypass the alarm system or whatever it was and it cranked over and the ECU I had was bad. That seems to be what usually is the cause to no spark in these engines.
 
I need help. Didn't get a remote nor was itold this alarm was on the car. Now it wont start at all.
