I have a weird spark problem. I get spark only when I let go the key (not cranking) when it starts cranking the spark don't exist, until I release the release the key and only sparks for a bit.

It's on a 1995 eagle talon awd auto.
I'm thinking it's the mpi relay but don't know how to check it. I tested the ignition coil and the ignitiong control module (translator)

Is there a way to check the mpi relay.
 
Turned out to be the Crank position sensor was broken due to the balance shaft belt ripped.
