    No spark

    Ok so I wanted to change ignition wires I found them in my closet plus original wires where getting old. But I put them in wrong firing order then the motor started back firing. Once I put them in correct order the car didn't want to start and I lost spark. What should I look at other than the ecu,ignition coil? Please help somebody

    If the only thing that you've messed with is the ignition wires, I'd suspect that they are still wrong. Pull the wires and put them in in the correct order.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

      Now they are in correct order I'm not getting any spark I'm going to check the crank sensor, starting circuit,ignition rotor, distributor car make sure there is a clean connection. Now someone told me to look at the starter solenoid as well so I guess I'll put that on a check list.

        Simple logic says the last thing you touched is 99% certain to be the cause of your problem.
