3VZE electrical problem- no fire

Jun 30, 2006 1 Replies

I have a 95 4-runner, it is now in the shop for troubleshooting due to no fire coming to the distributer. I did all the voltage checks and ohms checks for the distributer, the coil, the igniter and the PCM. All were ok just not fire at all to any cylinder. I recently did a head gasket replacement, timing is correct, I went back and checked all connections and ensured all grounds were properly grounded. The dealership said they cannot to on OBD until they get some kind of electrical out put to the distributer. Does this sound flaky? Does anybody have any insight on what else I may be able to check? Thanks for your time,

What is a PCM? Are you referring to the igniter? If not, have you checked the igniter?

You said that the timing is correct after you did the head gasket replacement. How do you know this? Did the engine run after you did the head gasket replacement or can you not get it started after the work was done?
