Arrow 87 Tii not getting spark
Hey my friends 87 TII is getting no spark. Its been sitting for around 2 months and was working when he last parked it. The coils are getting power but no spark is being produced from either coil. Any ideas??

Could I rule out the coils being bad since both of them stopped working at the same time?

Yes. I went through like 5ECUs on one of mine. It is the CAS or the ECU.

Oh yea there is no MAF on a FC.

Yea I knew that guy meant AFM but i just repeated anyway. WE'll try the CAS next, is there anyway to test the CAS besides replacing it?
