Ok this is weird!!! I started the car to check the timing belt operation. Ran good, no wobbling sprocket, WAhoo! fixed, so I proceeded to bolt everything up, replaced the drive belts, water pump pulley the shroud etc.. All set turn the key, just cranks, no fire, what the HELL!!! So I start troubleshooting. Getting fuel, pumps run, no spark from the coil wire. I have voltage at the coil, resistance readings are all normal, tried 2 other coils from running vehicles, a 1980 and a 1979, still no fire, swapped out ignition computer, distributor, cleaned and tightned connections at the coil, still no go. What gives, what else provides spark? I'm at a loss!!Also checked wiring from the connection by the computer to the coil. I don't know what else to check. No spark???
Thanks...
