No spark, engine died suddenly

[EricGRIT09]

So I have searched and just need some opinions on what I should do.

Over a month ago I was driving and the engine just cut out. I thought it was the timing belt, but it looks like that is fine, all in time. So, I went to check the spark, and I get none. No spark on any cylinder. I went to test the ignition control module and it passes the test for one set of cylinders, but not the other. I guess my question is that shouldn't I be getting spark on two cylinders if the part of the module that controls two cylinders is working?

Maybe I am performing part of the test wrong, I am going to double check in the morning. I just don't want to replace this part ($115) if I don't need to. And I can't go to a junkyard and get one because I need it tomorrow.

I also believe I am getting fuel, but I don't hear the fuel pump prime itself with the ignition on. From what I hear, that is normal. Its also a Walbro 190, so I should be able to hear it when it is priming right next to my head.

So what should I check? CAS? I highly doubt both coils went, right?

Like I said I tried the test on the module and it failed one side, and I tried it a few times. I'm pretty sure I was on the right pins, too. (1 is on the right, 8 on the far left).

Any help would be great, I've been without a car for over a month now. WTF

Update:
Fuel pump works, I can hear it as soon as the engine starts cranking over.

Still no spark on ANY cylinder.

Sounds like a sensor. Could be the crank sensor. Same thing happened to me, when i went to start my car after the rebuild. Got fuel, and it would turn over fine but just no spark at all.

Cheapest first, But if you have spare parts laying around or know ANYONE with your type of vehicle, Just quick try their parts.

To give you a short list to start off with:

coil pack
crank sensor
cam sensor
ECU

Unfortunately I don't have any DSM buddies.

I do work at an auto parts store, though, so I can probably try out the sensors and return them

My issue right now is that while taking my crank pulley off (doing water pump, too) I separated the two rings, so that's shot. And to make things worse, I still can't get that damn crank pulley off, been whackin on it for a while now.

Just for the sake of helping anyone else looking at this some day:

It ended up being that the balance shaft belt snapped, and took out my crank sensor... completely destroyed that thing. After searching I finally got a sensor overnight from my Advance store. Finished the timing belt job and got that new crank sensor in there, and she runs fine.

Glad you fixed it. Crank sensor was my number 2 answer above.
