Hello, the other day I was driving somewhere and suddenly the car lost power and died. In the shoulder lane, I tried to start the car and it did not want to catch. All it did was turn and nothing else. I managed to get it towed back home, and the first thing I did is check the fuses (all of them are fine). Next I tested for a spark and there was none. I decided to take appart the distributor to do an ignition system, ignition coil and ignition control module check and found that all the readings are fine. I would like to check and see if the signals from the sensors in the distributor are good, and I was wondering where I could find out what they should look like. I am also going to test and make sure that there is continuity in the cables. I can hear the fuel pump go when turn the key to the on position. Besides that I am stumped and have no idea what else I should check or do. Anyone have any ideas? If so, please let me know. Thanks in advance.
