OK Bruce, right again. I have no spark. There is no voltage at the coil or at the starter wires with the key on. In looking at the Haynes manual I see the wire colors I see don't all agree with what their diagram. Oh, fun.

So, coincidence or folly? I have not messed with anything at the ignition switch. All the dash lights come on. All fuses are good. Like I said before the system relay switches but the fuel pump relay does not. You explained very well why that is. It cranks over fine. I would suspect that I may have pulled something loose around the starter when I reached up from below trying to get at the coolant temp sensor but I see nothing yet. Dark & dirty in there. I will continue to try to find something pulled loose, but if you or anybody else has any suggestions of where to go next I am all ears. I'm in over my head now.

Maybe I'll have to change my name to Thick as a Brick Bob.
