1986 Gl 10 no spark

Featured Replies

My 1986 Subaru GL-10 4wd has no spark. I did an ohm test on the coil and it seems good. I have voltage at the coil when the key is on. Should i replace the ignition control module/pickup coil in the distributor? I don't know any way to test it. The tach has no reading when i crank the engine.

Thanks a ton. I took the distributor cap off and it did not spin when cranking the engine. Must be the timing belt.:)

I own an '86 GL with no ignition module in the distrubutor, so I would question that.
