1997 295 robbins no spark

That was a typo, I know the numbers but my thumb is too big for my phone buttons. by the time i got to open up the PC at work it was too late to edit it

At least between the three of us we got there in the end

Thx guys. I'll give it a whirl

Update. Pulser ohms ok. Coil, secondary side seems decent. Primary side,, nothing. And that's on 3 different coils. I know I'm testing them correctly with my meter, but all of them junk? Still digging through my used parts to see if I have an old igniter that I know is good

What kind of meter do you have ? If cheap one set it to the lowest ohms on the meter and check it across the two primary terminals. My lowest is 200 ohms. You will have to move the meter up to 20k to check secondary. Its measured in Kiloohms. See what you get after moving meter.

i have a snap on vom

cp241c . i found this response of yours on another thread. can you elaborate a bit? the reason I asked how you tested the parts are because the coil, being dual output needs both plugs and or testers to see ground or you will not get a spark. Unlike single coils that are internally ground on the secondary via the primary wiring ground, these dually's have isolated primary and secondary circuits and both HT leads complete the circuit.

To test secondary coil test resistance from one spark plug wire to the other.

I think you will find that was my post

Not looking for credit or anything

At Least CP gave you the correct answer!

I believe it may have been. You both were commenting in it. That particular paragraph was just his which is why I said that. Sorry!

CM and I often tend to think alike… which is probably why I often have to steal his thunder
