I checked the coil voltage following this videos directions and theres power. So could this mean i have bad coils? I did wire up the positive and ground backwards and blew the main 120 fuse when i wired it up and turned the key to the on position. Still have no spark. Also am trying to figure out where exactly the ground wire on the back of the motor connects to the firewall. If thats in the incorrect place could that cause the coils not to get power? Im pretty stumped. Also is there a fuse able link I couldve blown and can you tell me where it would be located?

correct me if im wrong but i think those 3 wires are the ground signal wires for the coils, i dont think they have voltage, the heavy black/red wire on the other connector next to the one your testing thats 12 volts for the coils.

do you have the igniter bolted down to the frame?

 

Yes I do. I even swapped the igniter

 

Do you have 12volts on the black/red heavy gauge wire on the other connector next to the one your testing, thats the 12volt source for the coils.

 

I got 13.3 v at that wire. Thank you for your help. So that means the coils should be getting power. Correct?

 

you might want to check each black/redwire on the coil connector to make sure the harness from the big connector to the coil is getting 12v

 

Can you check it at the coil with the upper intake manifold on or would I need to remove it?

 

unplug all the coils and test the B/R wire on each of the coil connectors, my coilos are on different location not under UIM, so dont know if you can reach the wires.

 

So there will be moe than 1 electrical connector for the coils?

 

The coil harness has the 3 signal wires and the single black/red 12v wire turns into 3 separate wires black red wires at the coil connectors

 

Does it look like the plug that we tested before?
