No fire or spark

I have replaced the ignition coil, rotary button, and coil but still am not getting no fire to Plugs. What else could it be? Engine turns over but no spark on top of the coil where plug wire connects not at any of plugs. Thanks...

I think you have the VORTEC set-up, look at the CKP & CMP sensor, ECT, TP sensor, IAC, ignition switch, blown fuse/s, timing chain, Bad ground to engine, bad distribtor, bad spark-plug, wires, or distributor cap & rotor. What is the "rotary button"? Well let me know if I can be of anymore help.

Souds like ignition module has failed. Check for 12 volts to mod and replace mod if voltage is good.

SOURCE: I have replaced the ignition coil, rotary button,

If you have the tools, remove the ignition control module (inside the distributor). You can bring it down to AUTO-ZONE and they will test it for free. Other stores may be able to do it too. Is this issue constant, when does it happen? Check the fuse box, ECT, IAC, TP, and the ignition switch. Let me know if that helped at all.

Coil packs I replaced #4 and #5 went out. Why?

How to Tell if You Have a Faulty Coil Pac How a Coil Pack Works When creating a spark at the spark plug, the fire must initiate from a high voltage supply, so as much fuel as possible burns in the cylinder. Whenever the combustion process is started, the coil pack builds up the energy, as much as 50,000 to 75,000 Volts. When the electronic control module (the car computer) sends the signal to the ignition control, the voltage is released from the coil pack through the spark plug cables to the spark plug.
When the spark travels to the spark plug, it jumps from the spark plug gap to the ground, causing an explosion of the fuel air mixture inside the cylinder chamber Coil Pack Problems Usually, if a coil pack is bad, there will be a loss of fire or spark in one or more cylinders. This causes what's commonly referred to as misfiring. Misfiring can cause drag on the crankshaft, and usually results in a very poor performing engine Common Symptoms of a Faulty Coil Pack A faulty coil pack will generally have symptoms similar to a faulty spark plug. Some of the most common tell tale signs that a coil may be defective include:
  • A rough idle
  • An unexplainably louder-than-usual engine
  • A noticeable lack of power
  • A significant drop in RPMs while accelerating for no apparent reason
  • A blinking or intermittently activating check engine light
  • An active gas warning light when the vehicle has plenty of gasoline
  • Smoke from the exhaust emitting intermittently, instead of in a steady strea How to Test a Coil Pack Fortunately, there is an easy way to test the coil packs in your vehicle and make sure they're working as they should. You need to use ohm meter to test the coil pack for continuity. Make sure you have the approximate ohm values for the coil pack. To find this information, research your car's engine on the Internet or purchase a Chilton's or Haynes manual to find out what the mega ohms reading on the coil pack should be. What Coil Pack Works with a Rotary Engine? Most rotary engines require a different type of ignition coil pack. Below are two, one for a standard replacement, and one that is a higher voltage performance type coil pack.
    Original Equipment Replacement
    Beck Arnley is a well known name in the automotive ignition parts industry. They are favored by many mechanics, especially those that work mostly on import cars. The Beck Arnley 178-8025 rotary engine coil pack is a direct replacement for original equipment parts on older Mazda cars with a rotary engine. You can expect to pay about $55 for one.Performance Replacement
    M&W Ignition Systems is a fairly well known name in the import performance market. Their part number PAK005 is a high performance ignition coil pack for the performance enthusiast who isn't afraid to spend a little more on a high quality high performance part. With prices running around $245 for a double coil pack for direct fire ignitions, these coil packs will deliver years of excellent performance.
    When ordering a coil pack for your rotary engine equipped car, you need to know the year and model as well as the engine displacement to ensure you are given the correct parts.

What would cause no fire from the coil to the intake-side set of plugs?

The actual ignition module is the only thing that you have not replaced. That is where the problem is. You can have voltage but not ignition when there is a problem.

92 civic engine stalled while driving; fuel pump works; replaced all plugs seeing some oil on old ones. only one plug fires; is coil still working? or the distributor? haven't checked fuel...

Hi,
Check the ignition distributor cap and clean the electric contact points it might be already dirty.

if one has a spark that means your ignition coil is still okay. Remove the whole cap and check the inside part and clean it, use emery board.
Check also the high tension wires( spark plug wires ).
Hope Fixya helps you!

Engine will not start. Coil is firing when

If coil is good and plugs are not - there's your problem. You can't have output of coil be good and plugs not work right. Something inbetween is wrong.
