starter works but motor wont turn over?????

heyyy

what the hell is wrong?????

went to leave work the other day and when i turned the key the starter was going but it took a little longer than normal for the engine to turn over.when i was going to take my hand off the key to try again,the motor started as i was letting go.
left work,stoped at the gas station, FILLED THE TANK,then tried starting the car and it just wouldnt start.

fuel pump still turns on and pumps gas so the filter cant be clogged.

thought mabey it was the ignition coil so i bought another one.didnt do the job.

plugs and wires are good

cap looks good

checked the posts on the cap and there is no spark at all.

what could it be?
distrib?
rotor?



please help
this car is a nightmare

Check the ignition module.

Make sure it is getting voltage and pulses in.

If it’s getting proper input but not putting out it’s bad.

Happy Racing!

Fog lights are not driving lights. They look dorky. Turn em off slow pokes.

How bout those dorks too scared to drive without headlights on in the daytime or if there is a little rain!
