Hi new to the forum,I have a 93 & 94 cavalier both 4 cyl i have transfered all the wiring from the 93 & put it in the 94 with the comp because it changes from 2 plugs in 93 to 3 plugs in 94. My problem is that it cranks but will not start I checked that the fuel pump is activating n it does I have power throughout the car lights radio dash turns on but im not getting current to the spark plugs from the icm can it be that its not working or is it that the comp does not work or even a groundwire how can i test or if there is something else that i have overlooked. Will be waiting for response going crazy without my ride...THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!!!

Not sure but what are you referring to when you say comp? When you go from 2 plugs to 3 plugs and leave something disconnected, look there first. What was left disconnected?

I think "comp" is computer. You need a manual for the electrical, especially that connector that is 3 instead of 2 connections.

You should figure out the plug connections from 2-3, are they compatible with what should be connected?
