My son has an 87 Dodge Caravan 3.0 auto and the spark up and quit.
The old coil was cracked with low ohm readings so we replaced it just because.
The coil is getting power, but it is not getting the negative pulse to fire it so there is no spark coming out.
I have a good multimeter and need to know how to test the output from the distributor optical pickup unit. I figure I should be able to maybe read voltage pulses on one of the wires or use the ohm meter on it but have no idea what the pinout should be.
Any help would be appreciated seeing as the part costs $300.29 freaking dollars! (more than the van cost)
Thanks,
Mike
