Thread: Help! Car has been sitting and now no spark

Ok so my b13 ser has been squatted for more than 2 years and its time to get the wheels turning again. New plugs, wires, fuel filter, oil change, cap, rotor, battery. My brother was using parts occasionally off of my car but everything is back in order (I think he used the ecu, and a plug or fuse a couple times, nothing serious and have made sure all fuses are there and good). No spark, coil is good and most of ignition sys is fresh, I'm getting stumped because the car ran hard when I stopped driving it. Any ideas? Chances of actual distributor taking a dump? Possibly wiring problem fluke just because of time? I've looked around and no critters have nibbled on anything. Just wondering if anyone has had some sort of similar problem. Thanks in advance all and yes, I've been searching

Does the oil pump prime when you turn the key to ON (but not START)?
Do the injectors fire when you crank?

Yeah I pulled the injectors the other day and they were firing; and yes, it makes a noise when turned to 'on' that I can only assume is the oil pump priming

Any fuses blown?

Check to see if your power transistor (ignitor) is getting a signal to fire the coil when you crank. Could probably be done with a timing light, or some other inductive pickup. Also make sure it is getting proper power and ground.

Might be stupid, but what about the starter? You said ignition is fresh, but what about the starter?
