Title: No spark-please help.
Post by Jonny_boy on Sep 12^th, 2006, 2:48pm

Hi, I'm a new scorp owner, I've just been given a [96] 2.9 v6 12v auto but theres no spark at the plugs, theres power getting to the transformer/dis e.t.c but not knowing much about these scorps and the fact that they're practicaly made out of electrics i'm getting confused and don't know were to look next, the pats led is dead and not doing anything, but ive been told its the ecu, but I found 1 in the glove box and tried it but still Know spark and 2 dead ecu's sounds unlikely.
can anyone help please, thanks.

Ok there have been several case of this with the 12v it has to be iether replay 19 or the distributor module or the coil... Have read through of these posts it might help.

and this http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=Problems;action=display;num=1122562890;start=2#2 has to be something relatively easy with the 12v as its OLD technology.. have you had the big multi plug out on the drivers side fuse box?
