Hey Lewis,
Have you checked the fuses in the driver’s side fuse box that sits right above the kick panel? There’s a 15A Engine fuse and 75A Ignition fuse. There’s a Main Relay just inside the kick panel.
I don't know for sure if those failures would cause no spark, but without testing myself, probably will. The last time I had a no spark, it was the ignitor on my 1985 22R, and it was, so far, the only ignition failure I've had.
Gnarls.
Good thought, Gnarls. I did check the Ignition fuse and it looked fine. If I recall, there is no Engine fuse on a 22R. I will have to look into that main relay.
Did your ignitor happen to go out after getting unusually hot? I took a 500 mile road trip halfway across Wyoming and back just before this. When I stopped in the middle of the drive home to add oil, the engine was just barely below halfway on the temp gauge (a little higher than normal), but the hood was a bit hot to the touch. And a tiny thread of smoke rose out of the hole when I poured in new oil, so it was certainly hot under there.
