i have a 69 camaro with a 400 and it gets no spark. i just put in a new ignition coil and still nothing. its been sitting for a few years, it cranks and gets fuel, just no spark. anybody know what it could be?

 

what kind of ignition do you have ? point's ,hei .

 

I have points

 

check for power at the distributer see if there is any spark at the points .could be a bad condenser .

 

Make sure the points are opening and closing. Check for proper gap, .020 is good to get the engine running, but you want to set them with a dwell meter once the engine is running. I'd first start off by replacing the points and condenser though. This is assuming you're getting key on and start position power at the + terminal of the coil.

 

Probably it is due to bad condenser but just to make sure why not check other areas as well. There might be some fault in there. Not sure though.

 

Sometimes, when you want to recharge your AC, your compressor will not turn on. This is because the PCM senses low pressure and it will not let the compressor turn on.
