Car wont start unless you ground out the coil pack

It will start first thing in the morning or if its the first time starting it for the day but if you drive for like 15 to 20 mins it will die on me while im driving. if i try to turn it over it tries to start but it wont, the only way we can get it to start is if i ground out the coil pack to make it get spark so i dont know if its the coil pack or shomething else

Maybe you should clean the ground for the coil

SOURCE: PT Cruiser 2003 died while driving, no spark from new coil

Hello, I hear that pt quit while driving and you heard a thump,and you replaced the battery and coil and still no fire. Well it sounds like you have timing belt that broke it will keep it from firing at the coil if broke. Remove oil fill have someone spin engine over and see if camshaft turns if not turning the belt is broken. Please rate this answer, Thank you.

If it is cranking with out turning over I would check the fuel pump and ignition relay, crank and cam sensors.
Basically you need to figure out if you have a spark issue or a fuel issue. (as long as you didn't have a serious overheating problem). One way to help you figure this out is by spraying in some starting fluid while cranking the engine. If it starts you have a fuel problem, if nothing then you have a spark problem (assuming you didn't blow the head gasket from overheating and was running normally before this happened).
Based on what you've already done here are my recommendations:
No spark: check ignition relay
No fuel: check fuel pump relay (aka shutoff relay, aka fuel pump shutoff relay), crank and cam position sensors, fuel filter.
There is also one other possibility, that the timing belt snapped. You would need to remove the timing cover to check this.

I have a 2002 dodge intrepid cranks but no spark.changed cam shaft sensor and crank sensor., all new plugs but still no spark....please help ..thanks

Hi Leroy, Im glad to help!

Here's a couple things you can try. First, swap the ASD Relay with one of the same type relays in the relay box. If it still doesn't start check every fuse. If it still doesn't start check power and ground at the "COIL PACK" If power and ground are good Replace the Coils Pack. If there is no power and ground at the coil pack then make certain you are getting power from the ignition switch to the ASD Relay. Hope this helps and have an awesome day Leroy.

2002 Taurus will not start until pressure is applied to the coil wires

Corroded terminals on the coil pack or coil pack connector would be the easiest thing check. If the wiring and terminals look good, then I would replace the coil pack.

1995 dodge intrepid wont start. Battery is fully charge but no power to anything. Car wont start

The alternator would not come into play unless the battery was dead.
Could be corrosion inside one of the battery cables, or a blow maxi fuse for the fuse box. Or a bad ground connection.
You would need to take a meter or test light and check for power at the starter post, and the major fuses.

98 Ford F150 w/4.6l Wont start. Hear fuel pump click. Have pressure on fuel rail. Pulled #1 plug from head and plugged back into wire. Grounded plug and cranked. No spark. Changed wires 4 and 7 four days...

have diagnostic codes checked to see if you have a cam or crank sensor fault. make sure fuel pressure is at the required pressure, just testing to see if you have fuel at the valve is not enough. replace all spark plug wires. if you replaced two then all are just as old and even when they "look good" does not qualify as "they are good". Replace coil pack. start up drive away happy

94 jeep wont start after trying for long time a few days gose by and it suddenly starts replaced lot of parts still wont start only when it wants to.

Hello and welcome to FixYa!

Have you replaced the coil pack? The coil pack supplies current to the plugs. If the coil pack is faulty it tends not to give current to the plugs. One good reason why it won't run most of the time. I strongly suggest that you replace the coil pack and observe how it goes.

Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa! Have a good one!

Car won't start after turning off unless I let it sit an ~hour

You have a cell going bad in the battery, remove the battery take it to Autozone for testing, or you have a bad plug wire or plug, when you start the car next time, remove one plug at a time and see if it stalls, if it does, replace the wires, and remove and check the plugs, clean and regap, or replace.
