Re: 84 Ford Ecoline van... no spark help!
Use a 12 volt teat light if the light shows power to the positive side of the coil. Put the light on the negative side of the coil. It should blink when trying to start the vehicle. If it doesn't replace the pickup in the distributor.
Normally this requires a puller. http://www.autobarn.net/xxxw-the415.html Otherwise use a rebuilt distributor or junk yard. The module in the distributor Auto Zone or Advanced will check free. |
