help 79 20r no spark
« on: Sep 17, 2016, 11:40:52 AM »
I have a 79 Toyota with a 20r. I lost power one day wen driving and have tried everything to try and find the problem but don't know what else to do. I've put a new coil plugs wires cap and rotor and the igniter. But I try ed the GM swap cause the yota one is to expensive. I think it's a wiring issue. And I am pretty sur my ignition is good cause all the dash lights work. Please help I'm at my breaking point with this

WOW, that's a lot of parts you have tried.
Have you performed any tests at all?
Does it crank over fine?
How are you testing for spark?

Yea it cranks over just fine and I have tested power to the coil and don't get power so I thought it was the ignition or the ignitor I have power in and out of the ignition but still don't get power to either igniter or coil thanks
