need help to diagnose. 89 Camry 3S-FE no start

I need help to diagnose a no start camry.

Timming belt slipped and Dizzy burned due to oil past o-ring.

I've replaced Belt, set cam/crank timming and replaced Dizzy on car.


Now car will not start. I checked spark at plugs and I get spark across all plugs when grounded against metal. What I don't know is, if the spark is strong enough.

I did a search in forum and found a post that recommended to scope the Dizzy and wire to determine dizzy voltage output. Does this mean I probe the dizzy as it is fireing with the Voltmeter?

Also, How do I interpret the pickup coil "resistance test"... I checked the resistance and i get momentary flashes of the reading for a second and then it dissapears... Is this normal?

I'm having a difficult time figuring this one out.

Thanks in advance for the help.

The intermittent readings on the pick up coil sound like you have found a problem. There must be a poor contact or a broken wire.
