No spark!!!

[METAL BEE 68]

Its a 69 318. Ran great with new coil, plugs, and plug wiers. It had an old electronic ignition on it so i left oi on. Now she turns over and no fire. I found its not getting a spark. So i put a new electronic ignition on it. Still no spark. Everything is getting juice. I've no more hair to pull out, so i need help.

You need to do a few checks... Have you pulled a stark plug wire & check for spark? do the same to the coil.... check ballast resistor..Must have a good ground @ ECU..clean & sand to bare metal.

A nice read & some good information on how to do some checks for no spark at the trouble shooting section......

Are the plug wires on right? Did the distributor cap and rotor get replaced if so you did put the new rotor in the cap? no insults intended here. Also voltage to the coil can be checked with a test light on the coil + should light solid with the ignition switch on and the coil - should flash while starting and during normal operations, if the coil is firing while the engine is attempted to be started the problem is more than likely not the ECU.

Don't forget to check your engine ground.
