Free money to anyone who can Figure out my no spark problem.

I've got no spark on my leading coil. I've replaced ecu's, ignitors, small coil wiring harness with no fix. I've also ran a jump from the ignitor to the coil harness thinking there might be a break in the wires somewhere. Continuity shows good.


Quick run down of what problem led up to this.

Everytime I would turn right, my car would peter off and die. Finally it wouldn't start up. I looked underneith my front drivers side fender and the tire had rubbed through the wiring harness. It rubbed through the map sensor wire and the light yellow with black stripe, that wire go's to the ignitor. It didn't wear all the way through but wore the outer plastic off so that there was bare wire showing.I seperated those wires for the time being. I know that the 3 bar map sensor was fried because it was showing very weird readings. I hooked up a stock map sensor and it ran for around 5 seconds and then shut off. Readings were back to normal. No spark since then.

Someone please help.

After switching the map sensor, did you go back and re adjust the settings for the stock one on your EMS?
