pull out 1 spark plug cable wire and get 7' inch solid wire, put it inside the plug cable then u have to touch them to the ground, someone will turn on the ignition and some one will hold the cable wire to the ground, if u see no spark from the solid wire that u put in then u have to replace the motor of distributor.

i have the same problem with my 92 sc300. it has a aristo gte with dual walbro pumps and the fuel pump ecu bypass mod done and my car started doing the same thing. i jumped the fuel pump at the wires that were spliced together on the fuel pump ecu mod and eberything started working again but i would prefer the pump to start working on its own instead of having to pump the fuel pump everytime i start the car. anyone got any suggestions????
