Either no power going into it or a dead coil.
Is the coil getting power?
Do you have an ohm meter?
Primary winding resistance 0.76 - 0.84 ohm
Secondary winding resistance 4860 - 5940ohm
yeah its hettin power 12v to the pos side. the coil should be alright it worked when the motor was in the other car. what is a ohm meter ? is it like a multi meter
Also could be faulty ignition module or the hall effect part of the distributor - both fairly common problem items - do a search on this forum and you'll find plenty of references.
Good Luck.
if the ignition module is fulty the car just wont start?? what about if i have the wrong memcal in the computer, its a vr computer but with a vn memcal??
