No spark 200 1985

posted by  someone claiming to be bogaski on  Tue Apr 20 16:20 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Hey guys, some quick advice needed. My wife's 240 died shortly after starting it as she was leaving the gym. It will turn over but is not firing up. I pull a plug wire and then a coil wire and am not getting any spark. I dont' think it is the timing belt because I can see the overhead cam turning when I look in the valve cover. It did this tonight in the middle of the night and I was going to go check it out tomorrow and thought I might get some pointers. One thing I did notice, the engine seems to be turning over with less resistance. That is to say, it as the starter turns over the engine, there seems to be less load on the starter. Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks.
