new post 95 4 runner wont spark up dated :)
well guys for anyone thats been following my problem.
heres what ive done so far
i checked all fuses and fuse blocks they are all good .
i replaced the ignitor , and coil with new ones , and replaced the coil wire
i tried out a used computer, ecu/ecm fro ma junkyard , it came fro ma running vehicle.
and still no spark.
ive followed everything in the fsm to check and still not getting spark.
does anyone have any thing else that i can check .
if not its going ot the dealership hopefully by today.
they said theyll charge me $88 to find out whats wrong with it , plus off course a towing bill to get it there. i asked if this was a diagnoistic price or to actually find out wha tthe problem is , and they said for the $88 they can find out wha tthe problem is.
so any suggestions before i get it towed ?

ok guys just got it back fro mthe dealership-
heres what the problem was , the connector in the fuse block for the efi fuse was bad. they temporarily fixed it for me , but its something ill need ot fix later before it becomes a problem later down the road , which will include replacing the fuse panel comepletly .
and heres how i tihnk it happened , when i bought the vehicle the previous owner intalled a cb and wired it directly to the fuse panel with one of those clips to add to a space i nthe fuse panel , well when i removed this clip all i did was pull it out , and apparently it was hooked pretty good i nthere , which i didnt know about , and it finally worked its self free from the fuse panel. my bad .

Glad you found the problem, too bad you spent so much in trying to fix it. You can always sell the good parts on ebay to recoup some of the cost though.

mine has 165000, if you havent messed with your fuse panel i dought thats the problem.
i was lucky and everything i bought i was able to return.
