1989 5.0 No Spark at the coil

Post by PaulSr »

Okay so I tried to start my rig the other day and it wouldn't start. Determined I had no spark at the coil. Purchased a new coil and still have no spark.........confused.......please help because a man without his rig is horribly depressing and will soon affect my marriage if I don't kick some sand soon!!

Thanks brothers!

First things to check change out is the EEC relay, then try the TFI module, lastly check to see if the PIP sensor is working.

Are there any codes? Does it start if you remove the SPOUT connector. Check the cap and rotor and see what that looks like as well.
My car is a hybrid; it burns gas and rubber.

Check for +12 power to the coil.
