At the Ignition Control Module, you can pull the CPS off and measure AC voltage while someone cranks the engine. Pull the cable off and read the voltage across the end of the cable while engine is turning over. I think it should be around .9 to 1 volt ac. If there is no voltage, then you will not have spark at the spark plugs.

Also, check the CPS resistance with engine off, (NOT turning over).....it should be between 680 and 1200 ohms.

For record, my CPS pulled off at the ICM reads:

814 ohms and .842 volts ac cold
900 ohms and .986 volts ac hot

Do a search and see what other members have experienced with a bad CPS.

The upper left position is the CPS connection. The other end goes behind the oil filter.
