I will try measuring the voltage tomorrow with the coil unhook 

 

and thank you for all help

  • I doubt that part is the problem.  No spark would have me checking for a broken timing belt, a loose rotor, and insuring the coil bracket was tight against the car body as it acts as a ground for the

  • No, you cannot bypass it. The transistor in the control unit will not handle the current of the coil. How many wires on it and is it grounded to the coil bracket? To act as a transistor powe

  • When you turn the ignition switch key to ON, one of the two eyelets will show 12 volts and that one goes to the coil positive terminal. The other eyelet goes to the coil negative terminal. That w

Okay so now both eyelets are reading 12 ish.          But that when it’s on the coil.

Right, it will. That is because the coil is made of wire.

Your picture showed the wires NOT connected to the coil, otherwise I would have said disconnect them.

That disconnected yellow looks like it belongs where the purple is.

Yep I fixed that still nothing

I don’t understand where the plug on the left belongs with the black and the black and white wire

  • Author

Okay so is the wy positive because mine after thinking about did have any voltage 

  • Author

What does the other wire oh f44 go any ideas I’m not sure if mines right 

  • Author

And then wy wire thet go to the control unit is not getting voltage at the plug or the controls unit is that supposed to be like that      Is it a ground?

 

No,WY is ignition pulses from the ECU.

The transistor and coil conduct when there is a pulse.

F44 yellow goes to coil negative.It won`t work w/o that.

Okay so the wire that goes to the f44 has a plug in it I don’t know what is does it anything about it

You can see in this picture f44 the yellow ones there the the black and whit goes to the plug on holding and the black they comes form the other side of the plug grounds to the block

F44 plugs  into he round connector .F43 into the transistor.

The ring terminal connected to the round plug goes to coil negative.

1990 wire colours may vary a little from the 1989 diagrams shown.

So I guess I need to figure out what’s on the other side of the round connector

Actually,the round connector appears to be just the tach wire.Should work w/o that.The ring terminal needs to be on coil negative though.

Your round connector seems different than the diagram as it has 2 wires.???

Yes it has two wires 

so what are you saying I should do 

  • Author

Is the yellow wire supposed to Read 12 or anything

Plug the transistor in.

Hook the eyelets up.

Forget about mystery wires

Drive your car.

Might help to go back o the wrecker you got the transistor from and inspect the donors wiring..

I don`t have a SPFI car handy to look at.

thnak you that’s how everything is set up and still nothing
