Could also be the pickup inside the distributor
Man you have all the luck don't you!
If your ignitor is getting everything it needs but no spark it might have gone bad. I have had one go bad spontaneously, one other I fried with welding. SO yes they can go bad.Other things to check are the pick up coil in the distributor and those pick up wires, I have had those get crusty enough to not work. It sounds like you eliminated those already though.
Want me to see if I have an ignitor for you in the shed?Post up a photo of the style you have.
Hey Lewis,Have you checked the fuses in the drivers side fuse box that sits right above the kick panel? Theres a 15A Engine fuse and 75A Ignition fuse. Theres 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.
Sorry, Gnarls. You're living in EFI land. I don't even have a check engine light.
... Did your ignitor happen to go out after getting unusually hot?
So, the other day I was waiting at a red light in town when I heard a tic-tic-tic-tic start up somewhere under the hood about directly in front of me and maybe a little to the left. I had just enough time to think "That doesn't sound good. I should look into it sometime" before the engine died
I've tried everything I can think of, but can't get spark. The coil checks out as best as I can tell with a cheap ohm meter, the HT lead to the distributor checks out, and there is 12V at the brown wire coming to the igniter. Do I conclude the igniter is bad?
I am hesitant to replace a $200 part on the grounds that all the others seem fine. Especially since many people say this is a really rare failure. But then again, that noise could have been the igniter shorting inside...P.S. It's an '85 22r. Lots of miles on the igniter, too: at least 150,000
Extreme climate?? Seems to me that the Wyoming climate is pretty nice to machines.
OK, it's a matter of perspective....... I came away concluding that the Wyoming climate is really nice to machines.... What I was thinking about was that it is dry.
Bring Me up to speed.
