4g54 no spark to distributor

[theozsnowman]

we took our scorp down to have wheels and brakes checked and when it came off the hoist it refused to start

turned over no worries but no spark..

power to coil is fine but no spark from it to distributor

replaced coil still no spark to distributor

anyone have any ideas what could be wrong?

was starting and running without issue before

Hey, I'm not sure if they are the same or not, but on my galant next to the coil is a little splitter ( not sure of its actual name lol) I'm pretty sure all it does is split the power from the coil to different parts of the car including the ignition system. This shit itself on my car once before and will cause u to get no spark at your distributor. I have hooked up the kill switch in my car off of that little splitter aswell. Works a treat on my galant it just has 4 wires attached to it. If u want to quickly test it you could just pull all those cables off and just tape them together so that they are bypassing the splitter. If it starts then that's the culprit. It may not be what's causing ur problems but it will only take u 2 seconds to try it and see.

found that there was a loose wire in the connector on the side of the distributor.. fixed that and its all sorted and running well
