After battling to get my car started after installing FIC 1120s, I finally got it start up without any trouble. The only issue was idle surge and I figured it was my injector seals. After waiting a week for new seals my car wouldn't start after installing them. I began the initial diagnosis of a no-start and found that I was not getting any spark.

I tested the ignition coil and received negative results. I also tried swapping out the power transistor and charged the battery. Assuming that the ignition coil was bad I exchanged it for a coil-on-plug system which I had laying aside. The car still does not start and I am completely stumped. How could I lose spark from just sitting for a week?
 
On of the connectors could have been loose not getting the full current. Ive had a fuse half way in before and had intermittent results. Could have been a cause.
