Spark issue!
Drove the car into the driveway one night and didnt start in the morning. Been trying to figure it out for a few weeks with no luck.
Car cranks, I get fuel (plugs get fouled), ignition coil and distributor both get 12v power, distributor works as I hear the injectors click. Only thing i really didnt check is the ignitor which a new one will be arriving tomorrow. Just get no Spark even out of the Ignition coil- (tried 3 different ones) Have a race coming up in 8 days...
Anyone have any other ideas?

Check ign/coil signal. 12v + is great and all but with no trigger signal you get nothing. What ecu/management are you running?

Trigger signal out of ECU?
Running stock ecu with a eprom on it...
BTW the motor is a VE. And just now the idiot at Autozone fawked up and the ignition control module might not be in today...The reason I paid 145bucks was to get it today. Could have ordered online and gotten it for half of that!

Ok got the car running again! turns out it was a bad ignitor / ignition control module...
The other guys at the local autozone somehow came thru with the part!
Thanks for your help Se200!

I ll still buy one off you as a spare! Would rather keep one a couple around than pay 145 bucks again! lol

PM me for details regarding the event, I will be taking my NX up there so you will have a smorgasbord of spares to pick from if necessary...
