1991 Accord - No Start - No Spark
Howdy.
I've got a 1991 Accord that won't start. It ran fine daily, sat parked
for a couple of days, and now won't start.
- No Spark on any plug.
- Cranks just fine.
- Fuel pump cycles when the key is switched on.
- Check engine light comes on, then shuts off after a few seconds.
- Rotor turns.
- 0.7 ohms resistence across the low side of the coil (low voltage
tabs).
- High side of the coil (post to ground) is open (infinite resistence).
My initial guess is that the coil is bad. That just seems so unlikely
considering it ran just fine when it was parked last week. If it died
while running that diagnosis would be consistent.
Any suggestions? I'm out of my element here.. I'm more comfortable
with Honda motorcycles and GM/Chrysler cars.
Thanks!
