Thanks for the info guys.

Just need to know if a 3.0 engine from a 04 LL Bean automatic will fit a 01 LL Bean automatic. The 01 has a bad 3.0 in it now. If theres no difference i'm good to go. thanks

Will do. Need to re charge battery. No room to do a compression test. If you have a pic of the tester I can get in there please post a pic. thanks guys

Not a newbe here. Have been on this site for years. Could not get in site with my old name (wrongturninwv) and could not contact an admin. So had to come in as a newbe.

Getting spark, not a strong dark blue spark but there is spark. Pulled a plug and it did not look bad but was soaked with gas. You could shake the plug away from you and see the gas drip. Plugs are Bosh R6W double platinum. So I take it the pump is working and there is spark. So now what ??? What is the gap for these plugs on the 01 3.0 engine ?

Is there an igniter for the coil packs on a H6 3.0 engine, if so where is it or does some one have a pic of it ??? Picked up a 01 LL Bean from a lady that said it just died while driving last Oct. Engine cranks like crazy but will not start. I shot some starter fluid in throttle body but still just cranks. Searched the internet for how to test for spark on these hard to get any thing in there coil packs and found no answers. Was thinking about disconnecting one of the coil packs and put an old plug in and have some one crank it over and see if spark is there. Would I have to worry about shorting any thing out ? If I can be sure there is spark my next step will be the fuel pump. Any ideas will be very helpful . thanks Also showing no codes and engine has 216106 miles on it.
