Spark Problem

[89DOHC]

we have tested all plugs and recieve power at the coil put when it goes to the spark plug there is nothing.. i was wondering what problem there could be.. and we have noticed that there is a empty plug on the passenger side of the car that the blast pack *lil black thing* plugs into this plug and then the plug that goes to the distributor as well plugs into the other side of the pack.. does anyone have any ideas?? list everything u can think of were doing this install blind and i have been asking dauntless a lot of questions :P but i was wondering if anyone else had an idea reply or e-mail me at [email protected]thanks

I think you are talking about the Ignitor chip? It is hard to follow what you are saying. Pictures might help.

yea ignitor chip..ok let seeu know what the plugs sit in? well were not getting power through those were getting power to them but no sparkand does the ignitor chip need to be hooked up to anything like the plug that is on the passenger side ??

Your ignitor chip needs two plugs going to it, I believe one has 4 pins, the other has 5 pins. The wires from one plug go to the ECU, the other plug the wires go to the coils that sit on top of teh spark plugs. Both plugs need to be hooked to the igniter chip or you won't get spark.

It sounds like you are getting ready to fire up for the first time... MAKE SURE YOU HAVE OIL PRESSURE BEFORE YOU FIRE THE MOTOR UP! to do this crank it over prefferably with teh spark plugs out, until teh oil pressure light goes out, or the mechanical gauge you have hooked up shows oild pressure (should see at least 20lbs when cranking) AND that you see oil on the cam that is visible through the oil filler.

well we found the 2 plugs they are the empty one from the ecu and the one that hooks up to the distributor thing.. unless there is another plug i am missing from somewhere?? but i know what your talking about.. right now we are trying to get it set up to were we can start it but it wont be on for long were just testing things to make sure everything works good.. but thanks for the info it helps

The ignitor chip should not be plugged into the CAS, unless i am reading this diagram wrong. I'll post them for you, if it lets me..

you can not simply click on those links, tripod wont let you. Copy and paste them in the address line.

No, the ignitor doesn't plug into the CAS plug, that's where teh CAS plugs into.

If this works... this should be a picture of an igniter chip, mounted on the origianl bracket, with the plugs connected.

89DOHC do you have one of these, hooked up correctly?http://home.mindspring.com/~ah...8.JPG

Hey Cyberkreig, where did you get those pictures?

I pulled it out of the S14 FSM. (http://www.zilvia.net/faqs/faqs.asp) That page has all the info you could ever need.. except an S13 SR manual.. grumble.

So i got the S14 manual for the SR wiring, and the S13Ca manual for all the non engine related trouble.
