Hi, I just bought a 1993 240 Wagon on Sunday, Wednesday, it wouldn't start. I checked #4 and #6 fuses, they weren't blown. I check the power to #4 and #6. #6 had juice, #4 didn't. When I jumped a wire to #4, I could hear the pump(s) running, but the car still wouldn't fire when cranked. Today, I swapped the Fuel pump relay, and checked the voltage at the coil. 12.8 on the left (-), and I thought 12.8 on the right (+). But no spark coming from the coil. I bought and installed a crank pos. sensor. When I turn the key to on, I can now hear the pump(s) turn on, and shut off when I shut the key off, but there is still no spark. When I checked the voltage to the coil a second time, I got 11.9 (-) and 3.2 (+). What should the voltage be going in the coil? Where do I go from here? One more thing, when I try to do a self diagnostic, I can't get the LED to flash. What am I doing wrong? John
