Q:
I have 1997 chevy astro 4.3 vortec engine. Last night was running perfect, but this morning and after windy and rainy night, the van will crank but will not start. I visually inspected the Dist Cap and Rotor, ignition wires, spark plugs...they all seem OK. Fuel pump and injectors are working because I inspected the plugs I could smell gas on them. I am leaning towards the ignition coil; although I can see the spark coming through the coil wire that goes in the distributor, but I cant tell if it is strong enough. I swithed two ignition wires and cranked the engine and I noticed sparks coming from the neck of the coil and the wire. I put the two ignition wires back as they were and cranked the engine.. I did not see any more sparks from the neck of the coil. My question is- is it normal for the coil to spark at the neck when you have wrong firing order? or is the coil defect?
If the engine runs but misfires, one or more spark plugs may be worn or fouled, or there may be one or more bad spark plug wires. To diagnose this kind of problem, observe the firing pattern for each cylinder on an oscilloscope.
