Hello I have a similar no spark problem, which has never occurred before. After several start and stop attempts it deceided not spark all of a sudden? Just as I am selling it. A new mechanic checked it out and says the coil/ ballast resistor works. However no spark came from the coil. The tester indicates its fine??? Can sameone explain to a clueless guy what I might need to replace or check further...no abbreviations please
Thanks as always

Possibly your ignition module at fault. Make sure it has a good clean ground connection to the body of the car.
