Top diagnostic error?, not checking Ignition timing for near TDC firing and missing the fact, that the cam timing belt has slipped!!!.Gross neglect of Distributor cap-rotor-wires-plugs ( called a tune up ).See cam spin? no? If not, you have discovered your problem. Timing belt slipped or snapped ( is cam spinning cranking? ) look down oil fill hole.Fuses must all be good, there are 3 fuses for ECU and COIL.( see fuse maps here) IG-coil, Dome, “FI”.Tools: a Timing light, if no timing light? your efforts are wasted, IMO! for Fouled but they should look GOOD.įail to look at the factory dash tachometer, and see that it moves to 400 rpm (or tad less) cranking, No? then Igniter is dead.įail to make sure you didn’t loose the Ignition suppressor module, no Tachometer cranking, and loss of injections as a result.įail to have ECU power, and grounds to ECU and distributor.

(this combined information can save you lots of time)įail to discover the timing is way off and 100% proof the cam belt slipped. Spare design evolution is complex, over 5 generations of radical changes.įail to check spark at each spark-plug and at the coil. If spark is bad, all ECU’s Cut Fuel injection! This page attempts to cover 5 generations in 15 years span. STOP and do the ECU Diagnostic first, Please! I try here, to cover all generations in the year range stated!. USA centric, other counties the ignition can be different!ġ989 to 1998 1.6L and up to 2005 on all 1.8L to 2.7L C.O.P coil based engine. You tested for spark first here using the tried and true way.
