A test light connected across the coil primary leads should flash on + off when engine cranks(coil sparks when 12v turned OFF due to collapse of magnetic field).If you get pulsed 12 volts,and no spark from the coil,the coil is bad.If you don't get the pulsed 12 volts,trace back to find out why(the PCM turns the coil ground on and off,12 volts comes from switched IGN source)

SOURCE: 2003 FORD TAURUS 3.0 VIN S LOST INJECTOR PULSE,

Are you check right fuel pressure to the check valve on the fuel rail, the spark is there, the timing is correct, it cranks over fine? You'll probably need to do some pinpoint checks to see if the drivers are working. Are you scanned the PCM to know exactly what fault code is stored?

Keep in mind that the EDIS ignition will not function without a valid PIP signal. However, when dealing with computer modules and circuitry, intermittent-type problems are not all that uncommon, so you can't rule out a component just because you know that it works properly some of the time.

Keep us updated.

look at the fuel rail and on the end is a vacumn operated shut off valve on older cars and i suspect that either the vac pipe is perished or the diaphragm inside the vale is perished

I have a dodge stratus 2000 with 2.4 liter dohc motor, ran fine then stalled once started right no spark will not start

Try using one of the old plugs and connect it to #1 and a good ground then try starting to visually confirm if spark is/is not present. Its much easier to see the spark in the dark. If you get a spark the problem is not electrical and could be a bad ground between the plug and the block, rarely happens, but not unheard of.

No spark wont start

The coil in the distributor is THE coil. Try replacing that coil.

1999 ford escort wont start not firing no spark.

Check Engine Light on? It could be the "crankshaft position sensor" or the "camshaft position sensor", maybe the coilpack but, if it's the coil pack you should still have spark on two cylinders.

1995 DODGE RAM B1500 NO START

You need to use a LED type test light for the injectors or a Bosch style Noid light for the injector. To test the cam/crank sensor signal you either need a scanner to read them or a lab scope to show you a signal. The pickup plate in the dist handles the injector timing, the crank sensor provides a RPM signal. They both feed the computer information for ignition timing. Good fuel pressure, injector activity(Noid), and good spark out of the coil. The coil is what I replace the most of.
