Are u saying the coil wire that looks like the spark plug wire? IF you are, the coil could be shot or even the coil wire could have a break in it. What type of vehicle is this on.

What would cause a car to crank but not start on a 2002 ACURA TL 3.2L?

No reaction to starting fluid means no spark. Cam sensor, timing sensor, spark plug coils etc. Likely will take a mechanic with professional testing tools to find the cause.

2005 ford freestar that only misfires when raining.I've changed the plugs, wires are good&tight. Distributor cap? I've been told it could be loose or cracked,also been told it doesn't have one. Help

Since your van is not new, here is an old fix that might help you.
Open the hood and find the spark plug wires.
Trace them from the spark plug to the distributor cap.
On your van, the distributor cap is also called a coil pack.
It has 6 spark plug wires that plug in to it.
Both dirt and tiny cracks can cause your problem.
Before you start changing parts, try soaking the coil pack and wires with a good heavy-duty silicone spray.
P.S. Do not take anything apart first, leave all parts in place.
If that fixes it, good, if not, you may need new wires or a new coil pack, or both.
God bless your efforts.

Have a 2002 chrysler town and country, stumbles and back fires, have a code p0302

#2 cylinder misfire. Plug, wire, or coil pack. One of them is bad. My guess is the coil pack. Pull the wire off the coil, lay it on top the coil close to the #2 port. Start the van. You should see the coil throwing an arc to the plug wire. No arc replace the coil. If you have arc, then replace the plug and wire. I would do all of them.

Someone stole all eletrical parts off van replaced parts but still cant get it to start have tried everything I could think of but still no Luck.

Lousy **** thieves. Had this happen to me with a starter where they left it dangling but not before burning out the entire ignition system and parts. They may have done the same thing to yours burning out parts of the ignition. (modules and coil(s) You will need to check them.

Van cranks but wont start y

sounds like a fuel related problem, possibly a fuel pmp, take a little starting fluid and spray it into the air intake and try to start it, if it fires up for a couple seconds then it is the fuel system...if it doesnt start that you have an electrical problem. Once you narrow it down into one of those two catragories, you will know where to look....the most common problem in fuel system is the fuel pump, others include, the fuel filter, fuel pressure regulator, and the injectors, the most common eletrical issues are the plugs, wires, coil, distributor, and starter. Another good way to check a fuel pump is to have it nice and quite and to the key from off the the start position, not turn the van over, but just to start, you should hear a little humming noise from the rear of the vehical which is the pump kicking on, if you can acheive the quiet you need for this you can have someone turn the key back and forth while you listen at the filler tube or even crawl under to the tank.

best of luck, we are here if you need anything else.
