Thanks Norm for another great video. Question, is there a way to test the ignition pick up? That would be some things else to eliminate, along with the bad ground. Keep up the good work...
You can test all the other components, and that leaves the module as the culprit. In our town Autozone ( supposedly) can test them, but a corroded module would test “bad.” So clean it and try it first, then test it if necessary. Clean before you test !
I'm about to purchase my first Fiero, the owner claims it's just the coil. That's actually why I watched your video. Is there anything else I should look out for on these vehicles? Thank you
Just bought 86 but the car haven’t run in over 5 years so I’ve had change the fuel pump and fuel filter and new distributor cab and wires and there’s spark when you crank it but won’t start? Any suggesting
Have you checked for spark ? The simplest way is use the coil wire and spare plug if you have one. If you have spark, you might try priming the engine with fuel in the intake. If the car has sat for many years - it’s most likely fuel related , but the ignition module is all completely within reason. The Fiero is very reliable car and I find it easy to fix . I have a long history with them , feel free to ask questions
Thanks for the quick respond! Yes I did checked the spark plugs are new and there’s spark when i firing the engine and also I’ve tried put starter fluid into the throttle I did start for second then cut off
