Reasons for engine turning over and not firing are simple. Spark or fuel. If you've changed the coil packs then chances are it's a fuel issue. Get in cab and turn ignition to second position whilst listening to back seat. You should hear the faint noise of the fuel pump working. If you can't, I suggest you firstly check your manual to find the fuse/relay for the fuel pump and check that. If they are fine, you need to replace fuel pump.

If you can hear it working and it still won't start, remove the fuel line going to injector rail and point into a jar whilst someone turns engine over. You should have fuel coming out. If this is fine, go back to ignition, remove a spark plug and turn engine over checking for a spark.

My bet is your fuel pump has packed-up. Good luck diagnosing.

Check the wire from the solenoid to the coil. Should be a red wire with a stripe on the second small terminal of the solenoid.

Hello,
Have you made sure the rotor is turning in the distributor, as this sound like a cambelt failure.
Sorry to bear bad tidings if this is so.

It's the solinoid. It's placed alongside the distributor. A coil about 1" around, and 2" long loosen, disconect the cable and lead coming out of it, repalce, and it will run fine then.

96 toyota camry. Replaced fuel pump, strainer and filter. Will crank if you spray starting fluid in it, but wont run. Any ideas?

Check for spark. Start at the coil, spark at the plug, Could be the coil or crank position sensor. Check codes.

Did you hook all of the grounds up, and did you hook all of the connectors up to the engine? If you do not have spark then I'd be looking at the coil connectors, the grounds for the coil, and the crank sensor. Also look at the harness real good. You may have pinched or broke a wire somewhere.

Disconnect the ignition coil module connector.
  1. Probe the ignition coil module connector terminal with a voltmeter to ground.
  2. With the voltmeter on the AC scale, crank the engine.
  3. Monitor the voltage reading.
Is the voltage reading within the specified value?
1-4 V if not replace ECM

No spark

Behind the engine on top of the tranny bell housing is the crank angle sensor.  Try wiggiling the harness.

Volvo 240 has no spark

Try a new engine rpm speed sensor. It is located at the back-top of engine block where it mates to trans. You will need to remove a single bolt (10mm socket or wrench). You may have to wiggle the sensor to lift it out. Another symtom you may experience, is when you are cranking the car to start, it will buck and act like it is out of time. Another possible component is the ignition power stage/amplifier.
