Hi everyone,
Very new to this forum, but I see alot of good informatin. I tried to search the posts before I posted, so maybe I could get an answer to my question.
We bought a 96 Eclipse RS yesterday, and today while drive (to the auto parts store of all places) the car simply turn off, while driving right down the highyway at 55mph. After pushing it to the side out of the way from everyone else, we tried uneventfully to start it. I was checking the plug wires, and found that the plug wires were not receiving any spark. sO luckily we were right across from the auto parts store, I walked over and bought a new coil pack (I think thats the correct term to use
.) I put that on, but still no spark. I did notice the day we bought it that the battery light and the CE light stayed on, but the car still ran fine. Guess we should have just stopped right there and start troubleshooting. Butto make a long story short, the "coil pack" didn't help. The car will turn over but no spark seems to be getting to the plug wires thru the "coil pack". I need everyone's
in this because we really need to get my car running. I am not the perfect mechanic by any means, but I can follow directions pretty well. Any suggestion would be highly valuable.
Thanks everyone
