Re: No spark -- bad igniter?

Bring Me up to speed.

OK -- My truck stopped running in the middle of the street a few days ago. I cannot get any spark, even hooking #1 plug straight up to the output of the igniton coil.

The ignition coil and sensor in the distributor both check out with an ohm meter, and the ignitor has 12v coming in. I am inclined to blame the ignitor but I'm doing some research before making a $100-$300 leap.

Hope this brings you up to speed. Shouldn't take much... after all, the speed of my truck right now is zero, to any reasonable precision.
