82 380SL no spark after injector seat repair
Hello, I know this is a well covered item, but this one to me is unusual. I just did an R&R on my injector seat O rings to seal up vacuum leaks I had. The car started right up fine. I let it warm up and put the multimeter on the diagnostic port to see how far off the mixture was. I leaned it out (CCW on the tower) a few 1/16th. of a turns. The car stumbled and stalled. I went back a 1/8th. turn and the car is a no start. After playing around with it, I find there is no spark. I checked the OVP fuse and it's OK. MY question is, I have a hard time believing that this is a coincidental parts failure - so would any of the sensor wires on top of the engine (obviously I moved them around) be able to kill the spark? The frequency valve is buzzing, the coil has power, but it will not fire. Thanks for your input. Andy
