Re: engine problems
Sparks usually arent good. Could you have blown a fuse link or fuse? Check for power at your alternator where the big red wire connects. Should have battery voltage. Turn the key on and check for power at the pink wire on your ign coil. Check all fuses. Your VATS system may be having issues but before you get into that, you should check these basics.
