I replaceed the coil with a Jegs performance coil and added a new set of Accel wires. Car was running great. I left to go somewhere and the car just quit around the block. I pulled a plug and there is no fire. Where do I start? Where are the fuses for the ignition? I checked the one near the battery. I dont have any testing equipment to check the voltage to the coil. Any ideas?

Re: No Spark

FIXED!!! It was the ICM. Easy fix. I took the old one to Autozone and had it tested. It was bad so I got a new one and it works fine now.
