Not getting spark at plugs

[bdavis]

So i am not getting a spark at my plugs. I have an HEI distributor and it is getting power but nothing is making it through. Any ideas on what to do/ check. I used an ohm meter to check the coil and it was good.

Bronco ran great 3 days ago after adjusting carb and time and now nothing.

#1 get rid of the junk hei. otherwise its probably the module its not telling the coil to fire they are cheap and its alway a good idea to carry a backup. Of course you may want to make sure you have power to the dizzy first.

X2 on replacing the module and keeping a spare. I mounted it out where it's easy to switch.

I ran HEI module for about a year. Constant issue of burning them up, went to Pertronics no problem in last 7 years.

Going to have it tested at Oreilys at lunch. I hope this is the issue cause its been beautiful all week and the bronco is sitting in the garage broken down.

Ill let you know if that was it. Thanks for the help.

I haven't burned one up yet but i'm sure it's coming. Those distributors they sell with the coil and module in the distributor, there's a reason GM quit using that.

Do you have power to the coil in the key "on" and "start" position?

 

[bdavis]

It was the control module. I replaced it and works great now. Thanks for the help.
