Not getting any spark. Car is a 2.3l 1993 lx convertible. Ive checked the coils with an ohm meter and ive taken the icm to autozone they said it was good. Also ive done the crank shaft position sensor check with a test light and turning it over by hand. I pulled the ecm out and opened it up nothing looks burned. Car turns over just fine id like to know if theres anything im missing i even grinded a few of the grounds to make sure they were clean. Thanks in advance.

Spark, fuel, air compression.

Pull a plug, lay it on head, crank engine over and see if you have spark.

Hook fuel pressure guage up and see if you have pressure.

Check compression

Check to see that mouse hasn't built nest in intake track.


Usually it's one of the first two
