Still no spark
3vze still no spark from distibutor the rotor, ignitor, cap, are new and everything is in timing. I dont get why the rotor is not spreading the spark to each wire. is the rotor defective? its spinning but not sparking apperently. anything else that can stop the rotor from giving it spark? im lost this damn thing was starting fine and now it doesnt even start. my spark from the ignitor is nice and strong when i grounded it. thats why i dont get how its not traveling. any help would help thanks

Did you make any changes/repairs recently, or did it just stop working out of the blue? You are positive that you are getting spark out of the ignitor? How about the other end of the wire (the end that attacheds to the rotor cap)? Crank it with all plug wires removed from plugs. Hold each one near the block and see if you are getting spark. If none of the wires spark, then I would suggest it is a bad rotor cap/button. If some or all spark, you might have the wires in incorrect order.

The Rotor and cap are new but was 180 off so i redid the rotor to tdc and still no spark can a rotor go out that quickly? i put a screwdriver on the inside of the cap to test for spark and i got shocked nice lol. maybe a new rotor will do the trick? this is just crazy it would start perfectly and now it just hates me or somthing.i get great spark from the ignitor aswell. i also redid the timing because i was off a tooth lined everything up and i get no spark from the spark plug wires really wierd can the distributor be bad?New ignitor and coil, mass air sensor, wires cap and rotor new ecu new efi relay and shes still giving me no love.
