My 98 Intrepid (2.7L) was running fine yesterday, went out today and she won't start. It isn't cold out so that's not the problem. The car turns over but won't fire. I can also hear the fuel pump pressure up when I first turn the key on. I checked the plugs, they looked ok but I replaced them anyway. While I had the coil-packs out I checked a couple of them to see if I had spark. I put a plug in the boot, grounded it to the engine and cranked the motor, looks like I have no spark. Checked another one with the same results. Not sure if this works on newer cars but thought I'd try it. I checked my fuses and relays and they all appear to be fine. Just to be safe I swapped a couple relays from non-critical areas (wiper relay) into more critical areas (atomatic shut-down relay). Still won't start. Any ideas anyone? I am at a loss here.
